@CheckReturnValue @GwtCompatible public final class SignedBytes extends Object
byte primitives that
interpret values as signed. The corresponding methods that treat the values
as unsigned are found in UnsignedBytes, and the methods for which
signedness is not an issue are in Bytes.
See the Guava User Guide article on primitive utilities.

MAX_POWER_OF_TWO
The largest power of two that can be represented as a signed
byte. |
| Modifier and Type | Method and Description |
|---|---|
static byte |
checkedCast(long value)
Returns the
byte value that is equal to value, if possible. |
static int |
compare(byte a,
byte b)
Compares the two specified
byte values. |
static String |
join(String separator,
byte... array)
Returns a string containing the supplied
byte values separated
by separator. |
static Comparator<byte[]> |
lexicographicalComparator()
Returns a comparator that compares two
byte arrays
lexicographically. |
static byte |
max(byte... array)
Returns the greatest value present in
array. |
static byte |
min(byte... array)
Returns the least value present in
array. |
static byte |
saturatedCast(long value)
Returns the
byte nearest in value to value. |

byte values. The sign of the value
returned is the same as that of ((Byte) a).compareTo(b).
Note: this method behaves identically to the JDK 7 method Byte.compare(byte, byte).
a - the first byte to compareb - the second byte to comparea is less than b; a positive
value if a is greater than b; or zero if they are equalpublic static byte min(byte... array)

every other value in the arrayIllegalArgumentException - if array is emptypublic static String join(String separator, byte... array)
byte values separated
by separator. For example, join(":", 0x01, 0x02, -0x01)
returns the string "1:2:-1".separator - the text that should appear between consecutive values in
the resulting string (but not at the start or end)array - an array of byte values, possibly emptypublic static Comparator<byte[]> lexicographicalComparator()
byte arrays
lexicographically. That is, it compares, using compare(byte, byte)), the first pair of values that follow any common
prefix, or when one array is a prefix of the other, treats the shorter
array as the lesser. For example, [] < [0x01] < [0x01, 0x80] <
[0x01, 0x7F] < [0x02]. Values are treated as signed.
The returned comparator is inconsistent with Object.equals(Object) (since arrays support only identity equality), but
it is consistent with Arrays.equals(byte[], byte[]).
