|
|
|
||
|
|
Helps read/write and convert between legacy IBM System formats and .NET types.
|
||
|
|
Includes IbmConverter class as well as BinaryReader & BinaryWriter extensions
|
||
|
|
for EBCDIC string, Big Endian Int16, Big Endian Int32 and
|
||
|
|
IBM System/360 single precision floating point format.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Issues welcome. Do not fold, spindle, or mutilate.

### Example of using BinaryReader extension methods
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```C#
|
||
|
|
using System.IO;
|
||
|
|
using Unplugged.IbmBits;
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```C#
|
||
|
|
using (var stream = File.OpenRead("punchcard.bin"))
|
||
|
|
using (var reader = new BinaryReader(stream))
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
string text = reader.ReadStringEbcdic(12);
|
||
|
|
float f = reader.ReadSingleIbm();
|
||
|
|
int i16 = reader.ReadInt16BigEndian();
|
||
|
|
int i32 = reader.ReadInt32BigEndian();
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
### Example of using BinaryWriter extension methods
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```C#
|
||
|
|
using (var stream = File.OpenWrite("punchcard.bin"))
|
||
|
|
using (var writer = new BinaryWriter(stream))
|
||
|
|
{
|
||
|
|
writer.WriteEbcdic("Hello, World");
|
||
|
|
writer.WriteIbmSingle(3.14f);
|
||
|
|
writer.WriteBigEndian((Int16) 13);
|
||
|
|
writer.WriteBigEndian((Int32) 54321);
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
