## Uses of Class
java.nio.ByteOrder

- Packages that use ByteOrder
  Package | Description
  --- | ---
  java.lang.invoke | The `java.lang.invoke` package provides low-level primitives for interacting with the Java Virtual Machine.

  javax.imageio.stream | A package of the Java Image I/O API dealing with low-level I/O from files and streams.

- - ### Uses of ByteOrder in java.lang.invoke

    Methods in java.lang.invoke with parameters of type ByteOrder
    Modifier and Type | Method | Description
    --- | --- | ---
    `static VarHandle` | MethodHandles.`byteArrayViewVarHandle​(Class<?> viewArrayClass, ByteOrder byteOrder)` | Produces a VarHandle giving access to elements of a `byte[]` array viewed as if it were a different primitive array type, such as `int[]` or `long[]`.
    `static VarHandle` | MethodHandles.`byteBufferViewVarHandle​(Class<?> viewArrayClass, ByteOrder byteOrder)` | Produces a VarHandle giving access to elements of a `ByteBuffer` viewed as if it were an array of elements of a different primitive component type to that of `byte`, such as `int[]` or `long[]`.
