XOR processing with multiple bytes about kaitai_struct HOT 4 CLOSED

Um, ok, I'm on that. The main problem here is that [0x11, 0x22, 0x33] you're proposing is not a byte array (as in byte[] in Java), but array of integers, that will be ArrayList<Integer> in Java. We need to somehow convert one into another.

Well, it's more or less done, at least for Ruby that you were most interested in: see http://kaitai.io/ci

The syntax is just as you've requested, but note that there's a crazy catch here: argument must be "byte array", not just any "array of integers". And here's the subtle difference:

• [0x11, 0x22, 0x33] is treated as byte array now
• [0x11, 0x222, 0x33] would be treated as array of integers, because of 0x222, which does not fit 1 byte and thus is represented by "generic integer" (i.e. CalcIntType) and not 1-byte type (Int1Type)
• [0x11, 0x222 - 0x200, 0x33] would be treated as array of integers too, despite 0x222 - 0x200 being able to fit in one byte, calculations would keep types promoted to CalcIntType.

Thanks, testing now.
Works like a charm!
I believe that you'd want to close this issue yourself, after adding support to all other languages?

from kaitai_struct.

Yeah. It's fully done now - http://kaitai.io/ci - except for 2 WIP languages, C# and Swift.
