IntFromBytesLE

IntFromBytesLE

Description

Create an integer from little-endian bytes.

Parameters

Name Direction Description
bytes in Source byte buffer holding the magnitude in little-endian order (least significant byte first). May be NULL when len == 0.
len in Number of bytes to read from bytes.
alloc in Allocator to bind to the returned integer.

Success

Returns a normalised Int holding the unsigned magnitude packed in bytes. bytes is not modified.

Failure

Returns a zero-initialised Int bound to alloc when the underlying bit-vector allocation fails. The caller cannot distinguish that from a true zero result. LOG_FATAL when bytes is NULL and len != 0.
