pkg> add Pack1
A single file Julia libray using pack(1)
alignment to pack value-typed instances into UInt8 arrays.
This is useful when sending data over the network or sharing data with other computer despite different endianness.
The motivation for this project was to teach Julia-generated functions to achieve high performance computations.
import Pack1
struct S
x::Int32
y::Int16
end
data = S(1, 2)
packed = Pack1.pack(data)
# 6-element Vector{UInt8}:
# 0x01
# 0x00
# 0x00
# 0x00
# 0x02
# 0x00
Pack1.unpack(S, packed)
# S(1, 2)
import Pack1: NetworkByteOrder
packed = Pack1.pack(data, NetworkByteOrder())
# 6-element Vector{UInt8}:
# 0x00
# 0x00
# 0x00
# 0x01
# 0x00
# 0x02
