Remarks

Compares this buffer to another.

Two byte buffers are compared by comparing their sequences of remaining elements lexicographically, without regard to the starting position of each sequence within its corresponding buffer.

Pairs of byte elements are compared as if by invoking Byte#compare(byte,byte).

A byte buffer is not comparable to any other type of object.
