# bin2hpp > _One day we'll get #embed and std::embed, but today is not that day._ CLI tool for converting files into header files which one can use to directly embed data in their C++ projects. ## Building 1. `cargo build` ## Future improvements - Not panicking if the source data is not UTF-8 encoded text when operating in text mode - C support - Choices between std::array, C-style arrays, std::string_view & C strings - Customisable data types & data widths (unsigned vs. signed, uint8_t vs uint16_t, etc.)
