ByteString : Fast, packed strings of bytes
------------------------------------------------------------------------
This library provides the Data.ByteString library -- strict and lazy
byte arrays manipulable as strings -- providing very time and space
efficient string and IO operations.
For very large data requirements, or constraints on heap size,
Data.ByteString.Lazy is provided, a lazy list of bytestring chunks.
Efficient processing of multi-gigabyte data can be achieved this way.
Requirements:
> Cabal
> GHC 6.4 or greater, or hugs
Building:
> runhaskell Setup.lhs configure --prefix=/f/g
> runhaskell Setup.lhs build
> runhaskell Setup.lhs install
After installation, you can run the testsuite as follows:
> cd tests ; make
or
> cd tests ; make hugs
For the full test and benchmark suite, you need GHC and Hugs:
> cd tests ; make everything
Authors:
ByteString was derived from the GHC PackedString library,
originally written by Bryan O'Sullivan, and then by Simon Marlow.
It was adapted, and greatly extended for darcs by David Roundy, and
others. Don Stewart cleaned up and further extended the implementation.
Duncan Coutts wrote much of the .Lazy code. Don, Duncan and Roman
Leshchinskiy wrote the fusion system.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Performance, some random numbers (with GHC):
This table compares the performance of common operations ByteString,
from various string libraries.
