Detailed Description

template<class STREAM>
class CxxUtils::BitPacker8< STREAM >

Pack a set of values bitwise into a stream.

This helper can be used to pack a set of values into 32-bit words and write them to a stream. This is a special case for 8-bit values.

STREAM should support output (operator<<) with uint32_t (satisfied by a ROOT TBuffer).
