DataView.prototype.getInt32()
The getInt32()
method of DataView
instances reads 4 bytes starting at the specified byte offset of this DataView
and interprets them as a 32-bit signed integer.
Try it
Syntax
js
getInt32(byteOffset)
getInt32(byteOffset, littleEndian)
Parameters
byteOffset
-
The offset, in bytes, from the start of the view where to read the data.
littleEndian
Optional-
Indicates whether the 32-bit int is stored in little- or big-endian format. If
false
orundefined
, a big-endian value is read.
Return value
A signed 32-bit integer number.
Errors thrown
RangeError
-
Thrown if the
byteOffset
is set such as it would read beyond the end of the view.
Description
There is no alignment constraint; multi-byte values may be fetched from any offset.
Examples
Using the getInt32 method
js
const buffer = new ArrayBuffer(8);
const dataview = new DataView(buffer);
dataview.getInt32(1); // 0
