Function Documentation

BytesToString()

std::string Blam::Converters::BytesToString	(	void *	bytes,
		int	bytes_length
	)

Converts a series of bytes to a string.

Parameters

bytes	- Start address of the bytes to read.
bytes_length	- The number of bytes to read.

Returns

The string representation of the bytes.

ConvertStringToWstring()

std::wstring Blam::Converters::ConvertStringToWstring

(

std::string

string

)

Converts a String to a Wide String.

Parameters

string

- The string to convert.

Returns

The string as a wstring.

HexStringToChar()

bool Blam::Converters::HexStringToChar	(	std::string	hex,
		char *	character
	)

Converts a hexadecimal code to its respective character.

This is used to evaluate a hex code representing a byte to its equivalent char.

Parameters

hex	- The string containing the hexadecimal representation of a character.
character	- Pointer to the char to set to the evaluated character.

Returns

true if the character was converted successfully, false if an error occurred.

StringToBool()

bool Blam::Converters::StringToBool

(

std::string

string

)

Converts a string to a boolean.

The following will be interpreted as true:

true, t, 1, on, yes, y

The following will be interpreted as false:

false, f, 0, off, no, n

Any other value will return false and add a message to console.

Parameters

string

- The string to convert.

Returns

The string evaluated to a bool.

StringToDouble()

double Blam::Converters::StringToDouble

(

std::string

string

)

Converts a string representation of a double to a double.

Parameters

string

- The string containing the double value representation.

Returns

The evaluated double value, or 0 if the value failed to convert.

StringToFloat()

float Blam::Converters::StringToFloat

(

std::string

string

)

Converts a string representation of a float to a float.

Parameters

string

- The string containing the float value representation.

Returns

The evaluated float value, or 0.0f if the value failed to convert.

StringToInt()

int Blam::Converters::StringToInt

(

std::string

string

)

Converts a string representation of an integer to an int.

Parameters

string

- The string containing the float value representation.

Returns

The evaluated float value, or 0.0f if the value failed to convert.

WstringToString()

std::string Blam::Converters::WstringToString

(

std::wstring

wide_string

)

Converts a Wide String to a String.

Parameters

wide_string

- The wide string to convert.

Returns

The wide string as a string.
