Protected Attributes | |
endian | endianity |
The endianity used by this class. | |
endian | native_endianity |

This class serves as a base class for the classes bofstream
, bifstream
, and bfstream
. It controls the endianity (i.e. the byte order of multibyte numbers on the disk) of the inhereted classes.

Definition of the endian data type.
The Endian defines the order in which multibyte numbers are stored in the file. The two orders are called "Little Endian" ( "Little Endian" means that the low-order byte of the number is stored at the lowest adress (i.e. the little end comes first). "Big Endian" means that the high-order byte of the number is stored in memory at the highest address (i.e. the big end comes first) |
