Replaced read_num_bytes!/write_num_bytes! with rust-bswap decode/encode functions.
This crate provides convenience methods for encoding and decoding numbers in either big-endian or little-endian order. This is meant to replace the old methods defined on the standard library Reader and Writer traits.
This crate currently supports both the std::io and std::old_io modules.

The documentation includes examples.
This crate works with Cargo and is on crates.io. The package is regularly updated. Add is to your Cargo.toml like so:
[dependencies] byteorder = "*"
If you want to augment existing Reader and Writer types, then import the extension methods like so:
extern crate byteorder; use byteorder::{ReaderBytesExt, WriterBytesExt, BigEndian, LittleEndian};
Or use the ReadBytesExt/WriteBytesExt traits if you're using the new std::io module.
For example:
use std::old_io::MemReader; use byteorder::{BigEndian, ReaderBytesExt}; let mut rdr = MemReader::new(vec![2, 5, 3, 0]); // Note that we use type parameters to indicate which kind of byte order // we want! assert_eq!(517, rdr.read_u16::<BigEndian>().unwrap()); assert_eq!(768, rdr.read_u16::<BigEndian>().unwrap());
