Detailed Description

Endianess management class.

The CL_Endian class is used to convert between different endianess. There are also a set of defines to the lazy developer:

#define SWAP_IF_BIG(i)
#define SWAP_IF_LITTLE(i)
#define SWAP_IF_BIG_ALOT(i, times)
#define SWAP_IF_LITTLE_ALOT(i, times)
#define IS_SYSTEM_64BIT()

Each of these defines call CL_Endian::is_system_big() and CL_Endian::swap.

Member Function Documentation

static bool CL_Endian::is_system_64bit ( )

static

Returns true if 64 bit system.

Returns

True if 64 bit, false otherwise.

static bool CL_Endian::is_system_big ( )

static

Returns true if big endian system.

Returns

True if big endian system, false otherwise.

static void CL_Endian::swap ( void *  data, int  type_size, int  total_times = 1  )

static

Swaps larger amounts of data between little and big endian.

Parameters

data	Data to be swapped.
type_size	Size of datatype to be swapped. (Must be an even number)
total_times	Number of 'type_size' size data chunks to be swapped.
