Convert short to byte[] in Java

Question

How can I convert a short (2 bytes) to a byte array in Java, e.g.

short x = 233;
byte[] ret = new byte[2];

...

it should be s

Answer 1

Short to bytes convert method In Kotlin works for me:

 fun toBytes(s: Short): ByteArray {
    return byteArrayOf((s.toInt() and 0x00FF).toByte(), ((s.toInt() and 0xFF00) shr (8)).toByte())
}
