Apps integers to bytes

[XsCode]

Hi all,

I'm new to Java programming, coming from VB6 programming many years back.

I'm trying to send a HCI command, but the params are sent as bytes and I can't seem to get the integer I want to send to form the correct bytes.

my example integer is 974 which when using hcidump is sent as 00 78 82. I understand that 0x78 * 0x82 = 0x3CF ie 974, but I can't work out how to get the bytes from the integer.

I've tried bit shifting with..

byte High = (byte) (myInt);
byte Low = (byte) ((myInt >> 8) & 0xFF);

but i get -50 and 03 ???

Can anyone explain where i'm going wrong?

TIA

byte[] bytes = ByteBuffer.allocate(capacity).putInt(myInt).array();
