ENDIAN_LE16()
Return a little-endian 16-bit value in native format
Synopsis:
#include <gulliver.h>
uint16_t ENDIAN_LE16( uint16_t num );
Arguments:
- num
- The little-endian number you want to convert.
Library:
libc
Use the -l c option to qcc to link against this library. This library is usually included automatically.
Description:
The ENDIAN_LE16() macro returns the native version of the little-endian value num.
Returns:
The native-endian value of num.
Examples:
Convert a little-endian value to native-endian:
#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <gulliver.h> #include <inttypes.h> int main( void ) { uint16_t val = 0x1234; printf( "0x%04x = 0x%04x\n", val, ENDIAN_LE16( val ) ); return EXIT_SUCCESS; }
On a big-endian system, this prints:
0x1234 = 0x3412

Caveats:
ENDIAN_LE16() is implemented as a macro.
