JavaScript dataView.setBigInt64() method
This setBigInt64() method is used to store a signed 64-bit integer (long long) value at the particular byte offset from the start of the DataView.
Syntax:
dataview.setBigInt64(byteOffset, val [, littleEndian])
Parameters:
- byteOffset: This parameter specifies the offset, in bytes, from the start of the view to read the data.
- val: This parameter specifies the value to set as a BigInt.
- littleEndian: This is optional parameter. If it is true then indicates if the 64-bit int is stored in little- or big-endian format. If set to false or not-defined, then a big-endian value is read.
Return Value:
This function does not return anything.
Example 1: In this example, the value set is 7 at offset 0.
<script> var buffr = new ArrayBuffer(8); var dView = new DataView(buffr); dView.setBigInt64(0, 7n); document.write(dView.getBigInt64(0));</script> |
Output:
7
Example 2: In this example, the value set is 789 at offset 4.
<script> // create an ArrayBuffer with a size in bytes const buffr = new ArrayBuffer(16); // constant value to set const val = 789n; const dView = new DataView(buffr); dView.setBigInt64(4, val); document.write(dView.getBigInt64(4));</script> |
Output:
789
