bytes-lit 0.0.6

Create byte slices from literal integers.
Documentation
//! Bytes converts literals into an array of bytes.
//!
//! Currently supports only integer literals of unbounded size.
//!
//! The macros are intended for small byte inputs. There is no arbitrary limit,
//! but very large inputs may result in long compilation times. For large amounts
//! of bytes, store the bytes in a file and use [`include_bytes!`] instead.

/// Bytes converts literals into an array of bytes.

/// Currently supports only integer literals of unbounded size.
///
/// Supported literal forms:
/// - Base 16 (hex), e.g. `0xff`
/// - Base 2 (binary), e.g. `0b11111111`
///
/// Leading zeros are preserved. Zeros on the front of the number are preserved
/// as zeros in the final bytes. For example: `0x0001` will produce `[0, 1]`.
///
/// Decimal and octal literal forms are not supported.
