uint32_unpack_big(3)

✨ NAME ✨

uint32_unpack_big — read an unsigned big-endian 32-bit integer 👑

🫶 SYNTAX 🫶

okay bestie, here's the whole vibe, literally copy-paste coded:

#include <libowfat/uint32.h>

uint32 u;

void uint32_unpack_big(const char s[4],uint32 *u);

like. that's it. that's the whole thing. 🎀

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

So uint32 is a 32-bit unsigned integer type, and it's normally either unsigned int or unsigned long depending on what your machine is giving. 💅

uint32_unpack_big portably reads a uint32 as stored on a big-endian architecture (i.e. in network byte order 🌐) from s, and writes it into u in the native byte order. no cap, it's just translating endianness for you so you don't have to think about it. iconic behavior fr fr. 🦋

it's giving "i handle the byte-order drama so you don't have to." main character energy honestly. 😭✨

• uint32_pack_big(3)
• uint32_unpack(3)

and that's the tea, bestie 🍓 this little baddie lives in the Library Functions Manual, and you can find it filed under uint32_unpack_big(3). go forth and unpack those bytes. periodt. 💖🌸🫶
