A very fast and simple utility for converting a binary file into a C++ source file.
bin2cpp makes it possible to embed resources into the program’s executable file and load them into memory in a platform-independent way.
The program generates a C++ source file from any input file, embedding its contents in a "inline constexpr uint8_t" array.

Features

  • The program is available in both console and GUI versions, with the latter being the recommended way to use bin2cpp
  • Validates names and paths for correctness
  • Supports Unicode characters in file paths and names, including valid Unicode identifiers in C++ (names composed of characters with Unicode property XID_Start for the first character and XID_Continue for subsequent characters, in accordance with the C++ standard)
  • Shows conversion progress
  • Shows elapsed time after conversion is complete
  • Shows elapsed time after conversion is complete
