MTBL_FIXED(3)							   MTBL_FIXED(3)

NAME
     mtbl_fixed - Fixed-width encoding and decoding of 32 and 64 bit integers

SYNOPSIS
     #include <mtbl.h>

     size_t mtbl_fixed_encode32(uint8_t *dst, uint32_t value);

     size_t mtbl_fixed_encode64(uint8_t *dst, uint64_t value);

     uint32_t mtbl_fixed_decode32(const uint8_t *ptr);

     uint64_t mtbl_fixed_decode64(const uint8_t *ptr);

DESCRIPTION
     mtbl_fixed_encode32()  and  mtbl_fixed_encode64()	write  the  32 or 64 bit
     quantity, respectively, in the argument value to the buffer in the argument
     dst. The quantity will be written in little  endian  order,  regardless  of
     host architecture.

     mtbl_fixed_decode32()  and  mtbl_fixed_decode64() read and return the 32 or
     64 bit quantity, respectively, in the argument ptr. The  quantity	will  be
     read in little endian order, regardless of host architecture.

     Bounds checking must be performed by the caller.

RETURN VALUE
     mtbl_fixed_encode32()  and mtbl_fixed_encode64() return the number of bytes
     written to the buffer. (4 or 8, respectively.)

     mtbl_fixed_decode32() and mtbl_fixed_decode64() return  the  decoded  quan-
     tity.
