C-Structures-for-Java

Serialize/deserialize structures on Java in C style. Just for fun.

Usage:

Deserialization

1. Create structure class:

public static class MyCStruct extends CStruct {
		@CType("int8")		public byte field1;
		@CType("uint8") 	public int field2;
		@CType("uint16") 	public int uint16_field;
		@CType("uint32") 	public long uint32_field;
		@CType("double") 	public double double_field;
		@CType("float") 	public float float_field;
}

2. Fill it from byte array:

byte[] array = receiveData();
MyCStruct st_big_endian = new MyCStruct();
st_big_endian.fill(array, ByteOrder.BIG_ENDIAN);

3. Print it to console:

System.out.println(st_big_endian.toString());

Serialization

byte[] array = st_big_endian.getBytes(ByteOrder.BIG_ENDIAN);

Follow simple rules:

C type                         Java type

int8                  ===>       byte
uint8, uint16, int16  ===>       int
int32, uint32         ===>       long
double                ===>       double
float                 ===>       float
