Installation

This crate works with Cargo and is on crates.io. Add it to your Cargo.toml like so:

toml [dependencies] byteorder = "1"

If you want to augment existing Read and Write traits, then import the extension methods like so:

```rust extern crate byteorder;

use byteorder::{ReadBytesExt, WriteBytesExt, BigEndian, LittleEndian}; ```

For example:

```rust use std::io::Cursor; use byteorder::{BigEndian, ReadBytesExt};

let mut rdr = Cursor::new(vec![2, 5, 3, 0]); // Note that we use type parameters to indicate which kind of byte order // we want! asserteq!(517, rdr.readu16::().unwrap()); asserteq!(768, rdr.readu16::().unwrap()); ```

no_std crates

This crate has a feature, std, that is enabled by default. To use this crate in a no_std context, add the following to your Cargo.toml:
