fix bswap for odd number of bytes (#41)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Fixes #38.

`bswap` was seeming to work well since Julia v1.6, but LLVM documents that
`bswap` is valid only for an even number of bytes
(https://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#llvm-bswap-intrinsics),
and a julia build with LLVM asserts enabled catches that.

NB: to enable LLVM asserts, put the following in "Make.user" :
```
FORCE_ASSERTIONS=1
LLVM_ASSERTIONS=1
```

## Release notes

### v0.3.1

* fix incorrect `bswap` for odd byte-sizes ([#41](https://github.com/rfourquet/BitIntegers.jl/pull/41))

### v0.3.0

* change and document how `promote_rule` is implemented ([#36](https://github.com/rfourquet/BitIntegers.jl/pull/36))
