public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
    // Obtain a ByteBuffer; see also Creating a ByteBuffer
    ByteBuffer buf = ByteBuffer.allocate(10);

    // Get default byte ordering
    ByteOrder order = buf.order(); // ByteOrder.BIG_ENDIAN

    // Put a multibyte value
    buf.putShort(0, (short) 123);
    buf.get(0); // 0
    buf.get(1); // 123

    // Set to little endian
    buf.order(ByteOrder.LITTLE_ENDIAN);

    // Put a multibyte value
    buf.putShort(0, (short) 123);
    buf.get(0); // 123
    buf.get(1); // 0
