Super class for all types that are ultimately represented by binary data.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`byte[]`	`getByteArray()`	The byte level representation of the binary data.
`java.lang.String`	`getHexString()`	A hex string representation of the data.
`int`	`size()`	The size, in bytes, of the contained binary data.

- Method Detail
  - getByteArray
```
byte[] getByteArray()
```
    The byte level representation of the binary data. This array should be treated as read only constant data as any changes will not be reflected in the source.
    
    Returns:
    
    a read-only array of the bytes of the binary data.
  - getHexString
```
java.lang.String getHexString()
```
    A hex string representation of the data. This hex string will represent the hex of the entire binary data and will be "0x" prefixed. APIs that depend on shortend forms will need to process the string.
    
    Returns:
    
    A string repsenting the hex encodeing of the data.
  - size
```
int size()
```
    The size, in bytes, of the contained binary data. Because getByteArray() may cause the underlying data to be copied using this size method is preferred when such a check would avoid a call to getByteArray() or getHexString().
    
    Returns:
    
    The length of the binary data in bytes.
