      public final class ByteConverter
      extends NumberConverter

  `NumberConverter` implementation that handles conversion to and from java.lang.Byte objects.

  This implementation can be configured to handle conversion either by using Byte's default String conversion, or by using a Locale's pattern or by specifying a format pattern. See the `NumberConverter` documentation for further details.

  Can be configured to either return a default value or throw a `ConversionException` if a conversion error occurs.
