All Implemented Interfaces:
  LittleEndianConsts

public class LittleEndian
extends java.lang.Object
implements LittleEndianConsts

a utility class for handling little-endian numbers, which the 80x86 world is replete with. The methods are all static, and input/output is from/to byte arrays, or from InputStreams.
