LEDataStream 1.5 : little-endian replacments for DataInputStream, DataOutputStream and RandomAccessFile. They work just like DataInputStream, DataOutputStream and RandomAccessFile except they work with little-endian binary data. Normally Java binary I/O is done with big-endian data, with the most significant byte of an integer or float first. Intel and Windows 95 tend to work with little endian data in native files. LEInputStream, LEOutputstream and LERandomAccessFile will let you read and write such files. Source code provided. The java.nio (new I/O) package that is new with jdk1.4 has ByteBuffer and friends that support big and little endian. That way you don't need LEDataStream. LEDataStream is simpler.
