Change README version pattern from * to 0.3
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.
Dual-licensed under MIT or the UNLICENSE.
http://burntsushi.net/rustdoc/byteorder/.
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 = "0.3"
If you want to augment existing Reader and Writer types, then import the extension methods like so:
extern crate byteorder; use byteorder::{ReadBytesExt, WriteBytesExt, 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, ReadBytesExt}; 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());
