Retrieves the native byte order of the underlying platform.
Retrieves the native byte order of the underlying platform.
This method is defined so that performance-sensitive Java code can
allocate direct buffers with the same byte order as the hardware.
Native code libraries are often more efficient when such buffers are
used.
Returns:
The native byte order of the hardware upon which this Java
virtual machine is running
