Utility Functions

Detailed Description

Many of these functions are meant to extend the concept of htonl, htons, ntohl and ntohs.

Several decisions were made when creating these functions:

• Using functions instead of macros allows:
  • similar performance gains when using a decent optimizing compiler.
  • typechecking on arguments.
  • constraining functions to the bit namespace.
• Rather than just converting host <==> network byte orders, there are explict functions for converting:
  • host <==> little-endian
  • host <==> big-endian
• The following notations are used:
  • host instead of h
    • Personally, I don't think the extra ost is too much more to type and I think it adds to readability
  • net instead of n for the same reasons as host
  • le for little-endian
    • Here, I thought there was a difference between le and littleendian. Somehow the latter seems awkward.
  • be for big-endian
• Additionally, there are byte swapping functions for floats and doubles as well as 16, 32 and 64-bit integers
