7 /* Functions for reading and writing integers in various endiannesses. */
9 /*
10 * The classes LittleEndian and BigEndian expose static methods for
11 * reading and writing 16-, 32-, and 64-bit signed and unsigned integers
12 * in their respective endianness. The addresses read from or written
13 * to may be misaligned (although misaligned accesses may incur
14 * architecture-specific performance costs). The naming scheme is:
16 * {Little,Big}Endian::{read,write}{Uint,Int}<bitsize>
18 * For instance, LittleEndian::readInt32 will read a 32-bit signed
19 * integer from memory in little endian format. Similarly,
20 * BigEndian::writeUint16 will write a 16-bit unsigned integer to memory
21 * in big-endian format.
23 * The class NativeEndian exposes methods for conversion of existing
24 * data to and from the native endianness. These methods are intended
25 * for cases where data needs to be transferred, serialized, etc.
26 * swap{To,From}{Little,Big}Endian byteswap a single value if necessary.
27 * Bulk conversion functions are also provided which optimize the
28 * no-conversion-needed case:
30 * - copyAndSwap{To,From}{Little,Big}Endian;
31 * - swap{To,From}{Little,Big}EndianInPlace.
33 * The *From* variants are intended to be used for reading data and the
34 * *To* variants for writing data.
36 * Methods on NativeEndian work with integer data of any type.
37 * Floating-point data is not supported.
39 * For clarity in networking code, "Network" may be used as a synonym
40 * for "Big" in any of the above methods or class names.
42 * As an example, reading a file format header whose fields are stored
43 * in big-endian format might look like:
45 * class ExampleHeader
46 * {
47 * private:
48 * uint32_t mMagic;
49 * uint32_t mLength;
50 * uint32_t mTotalRecords;
51 * uint64_t mChecksum;
53 * public:
54 * ExampleHeader(const void* data)
55 * {
56 * const uint8_t* ptr = static_cast<const uint8_t*>(data);
57 * mMagic = BigEndian::readUint32(ptr); ptr += sizeof(uint32_t);
58 * mLength = BigEndian::readUint32(ptr); ptr += sizeof(uint32_t);
59 * mTotalRecords = BigEndian::readUint32(ptr); ptr += sizeof(uint32_t);
60 * mChecksum = BigEndian::readUint64(ptr);
61 * }
62 * ...
63 * };
