org.das2.qstream.TransferType

A transfer type is an encoding of a double on to the stream. It must have a fixed length in bytes. Some are pure ASCII, and isAscii can be used to check this.

allocate

allocate( int recordLengthBytes, java.nio.ByteOrder byteOrder ) → ByteBuffer

convenient method which gently reminds that the ByteOrder needs to be specified with ByteBuffers. ByteBuffers are created with big endian turned on, but more often little endian is used.

Parameters

recordLengthBytes -
byteOrder -

Returns:

the byte buffer with the order set.

returns a TranferType for the given name, or null if none is found.
