I have a ByteBuffer reading a binary file with values as UInt32 . How do I read that in kotlin?

[bjonnh]

in java people do bb.getInt() & 0xFFFFFFFFL

[bjonnh]

but that doesn't work in kotlin (wants both sides to be of the same type)

[bjonnh]

I also can't do that with bytes:

[bjonnh]

(in java) (((b[3] & 0xff) << 24) | ((b[2] & 0xff) << 16) | ((b[1] & 0xff) << 8) | (b[0] & 0xff));

[serebit]

and

[serebit]

alternatively, do getInt and convert it to a UInt, then & it with the constant (also as an unsigned int)

[bjonnh]

of 0xffu is a thing now as well
