DecodeBytes

Decodes raw hex bytes back to bytes.

Module: Std::Hex

Signature

func DecodeBytes(hex: *const char8, length: uint) -> String;

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
hex	*const char8	Pointer to the hex text.
length	uint	Length of the hex text in bytes.

Returns

String — the decoded bytes, packed into a String. The pointer form of Decode, for when you have a raw buffer rather than a slice.

WARNING

The input length must be even, and every character must be a valid hex digit (0–9, a–f, A–F). Violations abort the program via Fatal.

Example

import Std::Hex;

let bytes = Hex::DecodeBytes(hexBuffer, hexLen);
