Function Documentation

FromHex() [1/2]

std::string utils::encoding::FromHex ( std::string_view encoded )

inlinenoexcept

This FromHex overload allocates string and calls FromHex; if data is not fully a hex string, then it will be only partially processed.

Definition at line 78 of file hex.hpp.

FromHex() [2/2]

size_t utils::encoding::FromHex ( std::string_view encoded, std::string & out )

noexcept

Converts as much of input from hex as possible and writes data into out.

To convert some range from hex, range must have even number of elements and every element must be hex character. To avoid throwing, algorithms consumes as much data as possible and returns how much it was able to process

Parameters

encoded	input range to convert
out	Result will be written into out. Previous value will be cleared.

Returns

Number of characters successfully parsed.

FromHexUpperBound()

size_t utils::encoding::FromHexUpperBound ( size_t size )

constexprnoexcept

Return upper limit on number of characters required to unhex input of given size.

For example:

• FromHexUpperBound(1) = 0, because you can't really unhex one char, it is only half byte. Where is the second half?
• FromHexUpperBound(2) = 1. Two chars will be converted into one byte
• FromHexUpperBound(5) = 2. First 4 chars will be unhexed into 2 bytes, and there will be one left.

Definition at line 35 of file hex.hpp.

GetHexPart()

std::string_view utils::encoding::GetHexPart ( std::string_view encoded )

noexcept

Returns range that constitutes hex string - e.g. sub-view of encoded that could be fully interpreted as hex string. Basically, if you have string_view a and c = GetHexPart(a), then range FromHex(c) will be fully parsed.

Parameters

encoded

input array of bytes.

LengthInHexForm() [1/2]

size_t utils::encoding::LengthInHexForm ( size_t size )

constexprnoexcept

Calculate expected length of input after being hex encoded.

Definition at line 21 of file hex.hpp.

LengthInHexForm() [2/2]

size_t utils::encoding::LengthInHexForm ( std::string_view data )

constexprnoexcept

Definition at line 23 of file hex.hpp.

ToHex() [1/3]

std::string utils::encoding::ToHex ( const void * encoded, size_t len )

inlinenoexcept

Allocates std::string, converts input and writes into said string.

Parameters

encoded	start of continuous range in memory
len	size of that range

Definition at line 58 of file hex.hpp.

ToHex() [2/3]

std::string utils::encoding::ToHex ( std::string_view data )

inlinenoexcept

Allocates std::string, converts input and writes into said string.

Parameters

data	range of input bytes

Definition at line 49 of file hex.hpp.

ToHex() [3/3]

void utils::encoding::ToHex ( std::string_view input, std::string & out )

noexcept

Converts input to hex and writes data to output out.

Parameters

input	bytes to convert
out	string to write data. out will be cleared

ToHexChar()

char utils::encoding::ToHexChar

(

int

num

)

Converts number to hex character; number must be within range [0,16)

Exceptions

out_of_bounds

exception if num is out of range

ToHexString()

std::string utils::encoding::ToHexString ( uint64_t value )

inline

Interprets uint64_t value as array of bytes and applies ToHex to it.

Definition at line 96 of file hex.hpp.
