add support to INT64 using long.js (or similar)

Open fcastilloec opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

There are a few problems that this module has regarding the types it uses. I suggest implementing long as a dependency so we can support INT64 (type x) The dbus-native module already does this. I'm not really a programmer, so I can't contribute with code for this.

I'd like to see Buffers here instead. It's a built-in in node, and as a user I can decide whether I would like to convert to a string, BigInt.js, long.js or whatever I want, to work with it. I think this is more idiomatic

I'm interested in picking this up. Would a patch for this feature be accepted?
