Java integer and network byte order byte[] array conversion relationship detail

This article illustrates the conversion relationship between Java integer and byte[] array in network byte order. To share for your reference, the details are as follows:

The work item requires socket communication between java and c/c++. socket communication is in the form of byte stream or byte packet. The socket sender has to convert the data to byte stream or byte packet while the receiver converts the byte stream and byte packet back to the corresponding data type. If the sender and receiver are of the same language, general 1 only involves the adjustment of the byte order. For java and c/c++ communication, the situation is a little more complicated, mainly because unsigned is not of type java and java and c are not equal in length on some data types.

To address this situation, this article has sorted out the conversion methods between the java data type and the network byte stream or byte packet (equivalent to the byte array). In fact, there is a lot of information on the Internet, but it is often incomplete, and even some errors, so I spent some time to do some verification and collation of the conversion between java integer and byte[] of network byte order. The functions sorted out are as follows:
