Convert int to little-endian formated bytes in C++ for blobId in Azure

質問
Working with a base64 encoding for Azure (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd135726.aspx) and I dont seem to work out how to get the required string back. I'm able to do this in C# where I do the following.
int blockId = 5000;
var blockIdBytes = BitConverter.GetBytes(blockId);
Console.WriteLine(blockIdBytes);
string blockIdBase64 = Convert.ToBase64String(blockIdBytes);
Console.WriteLine(blockIdBase64);
Which prints out (in LINQPad):
Byte[] (4 items)
| 136 |
| 19 |
| 0 |
| 0 |
iBMAAA==
In Qt/C++ I tried a few aporaches, all of them returning the wrong value.
const int a = 5000;
QByteArray b;
for(int i = 0; i != sizeof(a); ++i) {
b.append((char)(a&(0xFF << i) >>i));
}
qDebug() << b.toBase64(); // "iIiIiA=="
qDebug() << QByteArray::number(a).toBase64(); // "NTAwMA=="
qDebug() << QString::number(a).toUtf8().toBase64(); // "NTAwMA=="
How can I get the same result as the C# version?

I ended up doing the following:
QByteArray temp;
int blockId = 5000;
for(int i = 0; i != sizeof(blockId); i++) {
temp.append((char)(blockId >> (i * 8)));
}
qDebug() << temp.toBase64(); // "iBMAAA==" which is correct

See my comment for the problem with your for
loop. It's shifting by one bit more each pass, but actually it should be 8 bits. Personally, I prefer this to a loop:
b.append(static_cast<char>(a >> 24));
b.append(static_cast<char>((a >> 16) & 0xff));
b.append(static_cast<char>((a >> 8) & 0xff));
b.append(static_cast<char>(a & 0xff));
The code above is for network standard byte order (big endian). Flip the order of the four operations from last to first for little endian byte order.
I think this would be clearer, though may be claimed to be ill styled...
int i = 0x01020304;
char (&bytes)[4] = (char (&)[4])i;
and you can access each byte directly with bytes[0], bytes[1], ... and do what ever you want to do with them.
