I reported this as a regression
https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=14582
The std.batmanip bigEndianToNative has a regression where the
slice range doesn't work with variables (only literals).
Is the syntax incorrect or is this a regression in dmd?
Using this main.d:
import std.bitmanip;
int main(string args[])
{
auto datain = new ubyte[16];
// this syntax wor

the short answer:
uint fromBuf =

ketmar, we meet again! Your explanation is great and that solved
my problem. Thank you. Maybe I'll try out t
I'm trying to create a primitive type given a specific buffer
slice. I can place the uint into a sliced buffer but I'm getting
compiler errors when using a slice to create the uint. Still new
to Dlang and unfamiliar with the template system.
How do I get this working?
import std.bitmanip;
int

i developed a habit of making such buffers one byte bigger than

way it's guaranteed to be 0-terminated.
Perfect, great idea. Below is my ut

When creating a string from a ubyte[], I have an invalid length
and string.strip() doesn't strip off all whitespace. I'm new to
the language. Is this a compiler issue?
import std.string : strip;
import std.stdio : writefln;
int main()
{
const string ATA_STR = " ATA ";
// this works fi
