[lang] A class for byte utilities?

["Couball, James" <jc...@cotelligent.com>]

Wondering if there exists in the commons projects somewhere (lang being to
most obvious place to look) a class of utility functions for dealing with
bytes?

I found an old org.apache.java.lang class in the jserv (see
http://java.apache.org/jserv/api/org/apache/java/lang/Bytes.html) and
Turbine 2.1.

Should this be a good fit for the commons-lang project?  I can't find that
it exists outside of jserv and Turbine 2.1... in fact Turbine 2.1 deprecated
the class stating to use jakarta-commons instead but I can't find it there.

Sincerely,
James J. Couball

A lot of the byte stuff has ended up in Commons Codec,

http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/codec/index.html

as it fit Codec's manifesto of encoding and decoding Strings.

Does that have the functionality you're after?
