Type Definition Details:

◆ TStorage

Local type alias (shortcut).

Definition at line 840 of file bitbuffer.inl.

Field Details:

◆ word

BitBufferBase::TStorage alib::bitbuffer::BitReader::word
protected

The current word, which is partly read and shifted to start with current bit.

Definition at line 843 of file bitbuffer.inl.

Constructor(s) / Destructor Details:

◆ BitReader() [1/2]

alib::bitbuffer::BitReader::BitReader ( BitBufferBase & buffer)
inlineexplicit

Constructs a bit reader using the given bit buffer and starting to read at the beginning.

Parameters
bufferThe buffer to read from.

Definition at line 848 of file bitbuffer.inl.

◆ BitReader() [2/2]

alib::bitbuffer::BitReader::BitReader ( BitBufferBase & buffer,
const BitBufferBase::Index & index )
inlineexplicit

Constructs a bit reader using the given bit buffer, starting to read at the given Index.

Parameters
bufferThe buffer to read from.
indexAn index providing the postion of the first bit to read in buffer.

Definition at line 856 of file bitbuffer.inl.

◆ ~BitReader()

alib::bitbuffer::BitReader::~BitReader ( )
inline

Destructs a bit reader. In debug compilations an ALib Assertion is raised if the read operation passed the end of the underlying buffer was performed.

Definition at line 865 of file bitbuffer.inl.

Method Details:

◆ ReadBits() [1/2]

template<lang::ShiftOpRHS TWidth, typename TResult = int>
TResult alib::bitbuffer::BitReader::ReadBits ( )

Reads the given number of bits from the stream into the given unsigned integral value.

Note
Two different template functions (selected by keyword requires) for the different integral types exist. One to read a number of bits that are less or equal to the internal buffer width, and one if there is more to read than the internal buffer width.
See also
This method uses a template parameter for the number of bits to read. A slightly slower, non-templated version is available with ReadBits<TResult>(ShiftOpRHS), which is to be used when the number of bits to read is determined only at run-time.
Template Parameters
TWidthThe number of bits in value to write.
TResultThe type of the value to return.
Returns
The value read.

◆ ReadBits() [2/2]

template<typename TResult = int>
TResult alib::bitbuffer::BitReader::ReadBits ( lang::ShiftOpRHS width)

Reads the given number of bits from the stream into the given unsigned integral value.

Note
Two different implementations for different integral types exist and are selected with keyword requires.
See also
A method that uses a template parameter for the number of bits to read, is available with ReadBits<TWidth,TResult>. This might be slightly faster and should be used instead of this method, whenever the number of bits to read is known at compilation time.
Template Parameters
TResultThe type of the value to return. Defaults to type int.
Parameters
widthThe number of bits to read.
Returns
The value read.

◆ ReadInt()

template<typename TUIntegral>
TUIntegral alib::bitbuffer::BitReader::ReadInt ( )
inline

Reads the given integral value from the stream. Information about the encoding of the values is given with the documentation of WriteBits(TIntegral).

Note that the implementation of this method consists of various versions which are selected using C++20 keyword requires.

Template Parameters
TUIntegralThe unsigned integral type to read.
Returns
The value read from the bit buffer.

Definition at line 1107 of file bitbuffer.inl.

◆ readUIntegral16()

uint16_t alib::bitbuffer::BitReader::readUIntegral16 ( )
protected

Internal method that reads a unsigned 16-bit value.

Returns
The value read.

Definition at line 232 of file bitbuffer.cpp.

◆ readUIntegral32()

uint32_t alib::bitbuffer::BitReader::readUIntegral32 ( )
protected

Internal method that reads a unsigned 32-bit value.

Returns
The value read.

Definition at line 241 of file bitbuffer.cpp.

◆ readUIntegral64()

uint64_t alib::bitbuffer::BitReader::readUIntegral64 ( )
protected

Internal method that reads a unsigned 64-bit value.

Returns
The value read.

Definition at line 250 of file bitbuffer.cpp.

◆ readUIntegral8()

uint8_t alib::bitbuffer::BitReader::readUIntegral8 ( )
protected

Internal method that reads a unsigned 8-bit value.

Returns
The value read.

Definition at line 223 of file bitbuffer.cpp.

◆ Reset() [1/2]

void alib::bitbuffer::BitReader::Reset ( )
inline

Resets this reader to the start of the bit buffer.

Definition at line 872 of file bitbuffer.inl.

◆ Reset() [2/2]

void alib::bitbuffer::BitReader::Reset ( const BitBufferBase::Index & index)
inline

Resets this reader to the given index position and calls Sync().

Parameters
indexThe next read position.

Definition at line 880 of file bitbuffer.inl.

◆ Sync()

BitReader & alib::bitbuffer::BitReader::Sync ( )
inline

Re-reads the currently fetched storage word from the memory.

Note
This method is not needed in common use cases and implemented solely for the purpose to support unit-tests which write and write in parallel to the same bit buffer.
Returns
A reference to this BitReader to allow concatenated operations.
