long.js

A Long class for representing a 64 bit two's-complement integer value derived from the Closure Library for stand-alone use and extended with unsigned support.

Background

As of ECMA-262 5th Edition, "all the positive and negative integers whose magnitude is no greater than 2⁵³ are representable in the Number type", which is "representing the doubleprecision 64-bit format IEEE 754 values as specified in the IEEE Standard for Binary Floating-Point Arithmetic". The maximum safe integer in JavaScript is 2⁵³-1.

Example: 2⁶⁴-1 is 18446744073709551615 but in JavaScript it evaluates to 18446744073709552000.

Furthermore, bitwise operators in JavaScript "deal only with integers in the range −2³¹ through 2³¹−1, inclusive, or in the range 0 through 2³²−1, inclusive. These operators accept any value of the Number type but first convert each such value to one of 2³² integer values."

In some use cases, however, it is required to be able to reliably work with and perform bitwise operations on the full 64 bits. This is where long.js comes into play.

Usage

The class is compatible with CommonJS and AMD loaders and is exposed globally as Long if neither is available.

var Long = require("long");

var longVal = new Long(0xFFFFFFFF, 0x7FFFFFFF);

console.log(longVal.toString());
...

API

Constructor

new Long(low: number, high: number, unsigned?: boolean)
Constructs a 64 bit two's-complement integer, given its low and high 32 bit values as signed integers. See the from* functions below for more convenient ways of constructing Longs.

Fields

Long#low: number
The low 32 bits as a signed value.
Long#high: number
The high 32 bits as a signed value.
Long#unsigned: boolean
Whether unsigned or not.

Constants

Long.ZERO: Long
Signed zero.
Long.ONE: Long
Signed one.
Long.NEG_ONE: Long
Signed negative one.
Long.UZERO: Long
Unsigned zero.
Long.UONE: Long
Unsigned one.
Long.MAX_VALUE: Long
Maximum signed value.
Long.MIN_VALUE: Long
Minimum signed value.
Long.MAX_UNSIGNED_VALUE: Long
Maximum unsigned value.

Utility

Long.isLong(obj: *): boolean
Tests if the specified object is a Long.
Long.fromBits(lowBits: number, highBits: number, unsigned?: boolean): Long
Returns a Long representing the 64 bit integer that comes by concatenating the given low and high bits. Each is assumed to use 32 bits.
Long.fromBytes(bytes: number[], unsigned?: boolean, le?: boolean): Long
Creates a Long from its byte representation.
Long.fromBytesLE(bytes: number[], unsigned?: boolean): Long
Creates a Long from its little endian byte representation.
Long.fromBytesBE(bytes: number[], unsigned?: boolean): Long
Creates a Long from its big endian byte representation.
Long.fromInt(value: number, unsigned?: boolean): Long
Returns a Long representing the given 32 bit integer value.
Long.fromNumber(value: number, unsigned?: boolean): Long
Returns a Long representing the given value, provided that it is a finite number. Otherwise, zero is returned.
Long.fromString(str: string, unsigned?: boolean, radix?: number)
Long.fromString(str: string, radix: number)
Returns a Long representation of the given string, written using the specified radix.
Long.fromValue(val: *, unsigned?: boolean): Long
Converts the specified value to a Long using the appropriate from* function for its type.
