BYTE to binary conversion

[Madan Chauhan]

Hi all, if I have BYTE bTemp = 0xAB; I need the binary stream of this BYTE value(ie 010101011) in to an integer Array. Is there any short way to do that rather to write the code to convert it? Thanks M Chauhan

use memcpy but be aware of data size types.

Try it :) :

void TranslateBits(CArray<int>* pcArray, BYTE* pbyData, size_t cbDataSize)
{
if (pcArray && pbyData && cbDataSize) {
for (int i = 0; i < cbDataSize; i++) {
BYTE byData = pbyData[i];
for (int j = 0; j < 8; j++) {
int iBit = byData & 1;
byData >> 1;
pcArray->Add(iBit);
}
}
}
}

void Usage()
{
BYTE byData(0xAB);
CArray<int> cBitsArray;
TranslateBits(&cBitsArray, &byData, sizeof(byData));
}

virtual void BeHappy() = 0;

I think you misunderstood the question. memcpy will not help the OP in this case!
