Bytevector Set Int
Stuff integers into a bytevector.
Usage
(import bytevector-set-int)bytevector-set-u8!

Sets the byte at OFFSET to N in BV.
bytevector-set-u16-le!
- (bytevector-set-u16-le! BV N [(OFFSET 0)])procedure
Sets the 2 bytes at OFFSET to N in BV using little-endian byte order.
bytevector-set-u16-be!
- (bytevector-set-u16-be! BV N [(OFFSET 0)])procedure
Sets the 2 bytes at OFFSET to N in BV using big-endian byte order.
bytevector-set-u32-le!
- (bytevector-set-u32-le! BV N [(OFFSET 0)])procedure
Sets the 4 bytes at OFFSET to N in BV using little-endian byte order.
bytevector-set-u32-be!
- (bytevector-set-u32-be! BV N [(OFFSET 0)])procedure
Sets the 4 bytes at OFFSET to N in BV using big-endian byte order.
bytevector-set-u64-le!
- (bytevector-set-u64-le! BV N [(OFFSET 0)])procedure
Sets the 8 bytes at OFFSET to N in BV using little-endian byte order.

Pack Integer
Set integer in bytevector.
- KIND
- (or symbol bytevector pointer) ; symbol from (bytevector pointer)
- START
- fixnum ; (<= 0 ...)
- ORDER
- symbol ; big-endian be big little-endian le little
The pack functions are pure or mutating depending on the KIND.
Usage
(import pack-integer)pack-u8
- (pack-u8 N [kind: KIND] [start: START]) -> PACKprocedure
Returns the number N packed into an object of KIND, at position START.
pack-u16
- (pack-u16 N [kind: KIND] [start: START] [order: ORDER]) -> PACKprocedure
Returns the number N packed into an object of KIND, at position START.
pack-u32
- (pack-u32 N [kind: KIND] [start: START] [order: ORDER]) -> PACKprocedure
Returns the number N packed into an object of KIND, at position START.
pack-u64
- (pack-u64 N [kind: KIND] [start: START] [order: ORDER]) -> PACKprocedure
Returns the number N packed into an object of KIND, at position START.
pack-integer
- (pack-integer N [kind: KIND] [start: START] [order: ORDER]) -> PACKprocedure
Returns the number N packed into an object of KIND, at position START.
Notes
- The pack-int & blob-utils APIs overlap.
- The pack-int API should be bit-indexed.
