java.lang.Object
org.apache.commons.compress.harmony.pack200.BandSet.BandData

Enclosing class:
  `BandSet`

public class BandSet.BandData extends Object
BandData represents information about a band, for example largest value etc and is used in the heuristics that calculate whether an alternative Codec could make the encoded band smaller.
