假设:a=0x12345678;
则大端字节序和小端字节序的存储如下图所示:
Big-Endian Little-Endian
0字节 12h 78h
1字节 34h 56h
2字节 56h 34h
3字节 78h 21h
你也可以用下面的程序测验你的机器是大端字节序还是小端字节序:
# include < stdio. h>
int IsLittleEndian( )
{
unsigned int usData = 0x12345678;
unsigned char * pucData = ( unsigned char * ) & usData;
if ( * pucData = = 0x78)
{
return 1;
}
else
{
return 0;
}
}
int main( void )
{
if ( IsLittleEndian( ) )
{
printf ( "is little endian!/n" ) ;
}
else
{
printf ( "is big endian!/n" ) ;
}
return 0;
}
