Interface BinaryDataInput

  • All Known Subinterfaces:
    RandomAccessIO
    All Known Implementing Classes:
    BEBufferedRandomAccessFile, BufferedRandomAccessFile, IISRandomAccessIO, ISRandomAccessIO

    public interface BinaryDataInput
    This interface defines the input of binary data from streams and/or files.

    Byte level input (i.e., for byte, int, long, float, etc.) should always be byte aligned. For example, a request to read an int should always realign the input at the byte level.

    The implementation of this interface should clearly define if multi-byte input data is read in little- or big-endian byte ordering (least significant byte first or most significant byte first, respectively).
