ByteData class

A fixed-length, random-access sequence of bytes that also provides random and unaligned access to the fixed-width integers and floating point numbers represented by those bytes.

ByteData may be used to pack and unpack data from external sources (such as networks or files systems), and to process large quantities of numerical data more efficiently than would be possible with ordinary List implementations. ByteData can save space, by eliminating the need for object headers, and time, by eliminating the need for data copies. Finally, ByteData may be used to intentionally reinterpret the bytes representing one arithmetic type as another. For example this code fragment determine what 32-bit signed integer is represented by the bytes of a 32-bit floating point number:

var buffer = new Uint8List(8).buffer;
var bdata = new ByteData.view(buffer);
bdata.setFloat32(0, 3.04);
int huh = bdata.getInt32(0);

factory
Creates a ByteData of the specified length (in elements), all of whose bytes are initially zero.
ByteData.view(ByteBuffer buffer, [ int offsetInBytes = 0, int length ])
factory
