Methods Summary
public static char	getChar(byte[] data, int offset) A convenience method for converting a byte array into a char (assumes big-endian byte ordering). With a cast this method can also convert a byte array into a short: // Using getChar() to retrieve a short short s = (short) getChar(data, 0) param data the byte array returned from the record store. param offset the index into the data buffer of the first relevant byte for this conversion. return a char corresponding to the first two bytes of the data buffer, starting at offset. // NYI. return '0";
public static int	getInt(byte[] data, int offset) A convenience method for converting a byte array into an int. (Assumes big-endian byte ordering.) param data the byte array returned from the record store. param offset the index into the data buffer of the first relevant byte for this conversion. return an int corresponding to the first four bytes of the data buffer, starting at offset // NYI. return 0;
public static long	getLong(byte[] data, int offset) A convenience method for converting a byte array into a long (assumes big-endian byte ordering). param data the byte array returned from the record store. param offset the index into the data buffer of the first relevant byte for this conversion. return a long corresponding to the first eight bytes of the data buffer, starting at offset. // NYI. return 0;
public static java.lang.String	getString(byte[] data, int offset, int numBytes) A convenience method for converting a byte array into a String. param data the byte array returned from the record store. param offset the index into the data buffer of the first relevant byte for this conversion. param numBytes the number of bytes of the data buffer to use for this conversion. return a String corresponding to the bytes of the data buffer passed in, starting at offset. // NYI. return null;
public static int	putChar(char c, byte[] data, int offset) A convenience method for converting a char into a byte array. With a cast this method can convert a short into a byte array: // Using putChar() to store a short. short s; int rv = putChar((char) s, data, 0); param c the char to turn into a byte array. param data the data buffer to write to. param offset the index into the data buffer of the first byte to insert bytes at. return The number of bytes written to the data buffer. // NYI. return 0;
public static int	putInt(int i, byte[] data, int offset) A convenience method for converting an integer into a byte array with big-endian byte ordering. param i the integer to turn into a byte array. param data the data buffer to write to. param offset the index into the data buffer of the first byte to insert bytes at. return the number of bytes written to the data buffer. // NYI. return 0;
public static int	putLong(long l, byte[] data, int offset) A convenience method for converting a long into a byte array with big-endian byte ordering. param l the long to turn into a byte array. param data the data buffer to write to. param offset the index into the data buffer of the first byte to insert bytes at. return The number of bytes written to the data buffer. // NYI. return 0;
public static int	putString(java.lang.String s, byte[] data, int offset) A convenience method for converting a String into a byte array. param s the String to turn into a byte array. param data the data buffer to write to. param offset the index into the data buffer of the first byte to insert bytes at. return The number of bytes written to the data buffer. // NYI. return 0;
