To turn a signed byte (-128 to 127) into an unsigned one: (bit-and the-byte 0xff)
The byte (for example 0x80, which is negative) will be extended to an int (0xffffff80) and anded with 0x000000ff (and you get 0x00000080, which is positive). The javadoc for the methods of DataInput[1] contain formulas for how to convert shorts and ints and longs too. DataOutput[2] contains comments for the opposite opereration. 1. http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/io/DataInput.html 2. http://download.oracle.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/io/DataOutput.html -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
