///
/// An binary data encoding class.
///
/// DataEncoder is a class that can encode binary data (swapping if needed) to
/// a data buffer. The DataEncoder can be constructed with data that will be
/// copied into the internally owned buffer. This allows data to be modified
/// in the internal buffer. The DataEncoder object can also be constructed with
/// just a byte order and address size and data can be appended to the
/// internally owned buffer.
///
/// Clients can get a shared pointer to the data buffer when done modifying or
/// creating the data to keep the data around after the lifetime of a
/// DataEncoder object. \see GetDataBuffer
///
/// Client can get a reference to the object owned data as an array by calling
/// the GetData method. \see GetData
