I’m a bit confused, Atul! Are you talking about BDecoder or BinaryReader? Could you elaborate your point a bit please?

Regards,
Peter

Why not use

int QByteArray::toInt() and leave all the processing to it? ;-)

I mean we could write a BinaryReader::toInt() wrapper and that could just call the QByteArray version….

So there would be a lot of less code to maintain ( and more reuse etc… )

Could the same ideas be used for BDecoder::readString?

I think I will write another SourceComment for that ;-)
