Donate to binary types for dart

Interrelated (binary) software

• Binary declarations
• Binary generator
• Binary interop
• Binary marshalling
• Binary types

Limitations

• Long double type not supported (and never be)
• Bit fields not supported (was started an initial implementation)

Supported binary types

• Array type
• Bool type
• Double type
• Enum type
• Float type
• Integer types
• Pointer type
• Struct type
• Union type

Addidional types

• Function type
• Void type

Binary data

• Binary data (at any memory locations and with binary type checking)
• Binary data objects (with automatic memory deallocation)

Binary type system

• Configurable data models
• Configurable data types
• Packed structural types
• Unlimited typedefs and the redefinitions (only for the compatible types)

Binary type helper

• String allocations
• Header declarations
• String reading

Small example

import "package:binary_types/binary_types.dart";

final t = new BinaryTypes();

BinaryData alloc(String type, [value]) => t[type].alloc(value);

void examinePointerElement() {
  // PointerType
  // Element of the pointer is a reffered data at the index.

  // int ia[10];
  // int ip;
  final ia = alloc("int[10]", [0, 10, 20]);
  final ip = alloc("int*");

  // ip = &ia;
  // ip = (ip + 2);
  ip.value = ia;
  ip.value = ip[2];

  // Test it
  print(ip.value);
  print(ip.value.value); // 20
}

void examinePointerElementValue() {
  // PointerType
  // Value of the pointer element is a value of the reffered data.

  // int i;
  // int ia[10];
  // int ip;
  final i = alloc("int", 41);
  final ia = alloc("int[10]", [0, 10, 20]);
  final ip = alloc("int*");

  // ip = &ia
  // i = ip[2] // *(ip + 2)
  ip.value = ia;
  i.value = ip[2].value;

  // Test it
  print(i.value); // 20
}

void examinePointerValue() {
  // PointerType
  // Value of the pointer is a reffered data.

  // int i;
  // int ia[10] = {0, 10, 20};
  // int* ip;
  final i = alloc("int");
  final ia = alloc("int[10]", [0, 10, 20]);
  final ip = alloc("int*");

  // ip = &i;
  // ip = &ia;
  // ip = &ia[2];
  ip.value = i;
  ip.value = ia;
  ip.value = ia[2];

  // Test it
  print(ip.value);
  print(ip.value.value); // 20
}

void main() {
  examinePointerValue();
  examinePointerElement();
  examinePointerElementValue();
}
