func Read
func Read(r io.Reader, order ByteOrder, data interface{}) os.Error
Read reads structured binary data from r into data. Data must be a pointer to a fixed-size value or a slice of fixed-size values. A fixed-size value is either a fixed-size arithmetic type (int8, uint8, int16, float32, complex64, ...) or an array or struct containing only fixed-size values. Bytes read from r are decoded using the specified byte order and written to successive fields of the data.
func TotalSize
func TotalSize(v reflect.Value) int
func Write
func Write(w io.Writer, order ByteOrder, data interface{}) os.Error
Write writes the binary representation of data into w. Data must be a fixed-size value or a pointer to a fixed-size value. A fixed-size value is either a fixed-size arithmetic type (int8, uint8, int16, float32, complex64, ...) or an array or struct containing only fixed-size values. Bytes written to w are encoded using the specified byte order and read from successive fields of the data.
type ByteOrder
A ByteOrder specifies how to convert byte sequences into 16-, 32-, or 64-bit unsigned integers.
type ByteOrder interface {
Uint16(b []byte) uint16
Uint32(b []byte) uint32
Uint64(b []byte) uint64
PutUint16([]byte, uint16)
PutUint32([]byte, uint32)
PutUint64([]byte, uint64)
String() string
