StreamPatch.Patch.Binary.PascalText
Description
Newtype for manipulating length-prefixed strings.
This type is for UTF-8 Text that you intend to write out to a length-prefixed
bytestring. The size of the length field is static. You essentially have to
decide the maximum bytesize of the string on creation.
Synopsis
- newtype PascalText (n :: Nat) = PascalText {
- unPascalText :: Text
- encodePascalText :: forall n. KnownNat n => PascalText n -> Maybe ByteString
- encodeToSizedBE :: (Integral a, Bits a) => Int -> a -> Maybe ByteString
- i2be :: (Integral a, Bits a) => a -> ByteString

Re-encode an Integer to a little-endian integer stored as a
ByteString using the fewest bytes needed to represent it.
