How to construct/bitmatch a signed int value ?

[fcon...@gmail.com]

Hello,

I tried to compile the following :

let foo = -10 in
BITSTRING { foo : 16 : int,signed}

and got the error :

Unbound value Bitstring.construct_int_be_signed

The same happens if you try bitmatch a value with the signed
qualifier.

Does anyone knows how to write it correctly ?

Thanks

You just have to write the appropriate construct function. Several of
these are missing because no one ever needed them.
