<h2>Abstract</h2>
|
|
<p>The Boost Endian library manipulates the
|
|
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endianness">endianness</a> of integers
|
|
and user-defined types. It provides three approaches to dealing with endianness:
|
|
conversion functions, buffer classes, and full arithmetic types. Each approach
|
|
has use cases where it is preferred over the other approaches. The purpose of
|
|
this RFC is to determine interest in adding all or any of these approaches to
|
|
the C++ standard library.</p>
