</pre></div><div class="refsect1" lang="en"><a name="id2983491"></a><h2>Description</h2><p>
These macros provide a portable way to determine the host byte order
and to convert values between different byte orders.
</p><p>
The byte order is the order in which bytes are stored to create larger
data types such as the <a href="glib-Basic-Types.html#gint"><span class="type">gint</span></a> and <a href="glib-Basic-Types.html#glong"><span class="type">glong</span></a> values.
The host byte order is the byte order used on the current machine.
</p><p>
Some processors store the most significant bytes (i.e. the bytes that
hold the largest part of the value) first. These are known as big-endian
processors.
</p><p>
Other processors (notably the x86 family) store the most significant byte
last. These are known as little-endian processors.
</p><p>
Finally, to complicate matters, some other processors store the bytes in
a rather curious order known as PDP-endian. For a 4-byte word, the 3rd
most significant byte is stored first, then the 4th, then the 1st and finally
the 2nd.
</p><p>
Obviously there is a problem when these different processors communicate
with each other, for example over networks or by using binary file formats.
This is where these macros come in.
They are typically used to convert values into a byte order
which has been agreed on for use when communicating between different
processors. The Internet uses what is known as 'network byte order'
as the standard byte order (which is in fact the big-endian byte order).
