Hi,

My application receives data from multiple sources transferred over ethernet. This data is broken into packets of bytes before being transmitted over the network.

My application has to take the data and arrange into a user defined type/class.

e.g one message from source 1 may be 10-15KB. This is broken down into smaller packets say for arguments sake 1KB. 

My application then has to take each packet and construct the data back into it's orginal size of 15KB.

This will probably be stored in some sort of array/arraylist of doubles rather than bytes.

My question is :- what is the best/most efficient way of converting the individual packets of bytes into an array of say doubles?

Regards
Macca
