Big endian and Little Endian issue?

Asked by tatikor_143 in C Programming Language

Tags: endian, big, little

Hi,

I am compiling a code which converts a binary log file into ascii format which contains some addresses.The binary log file which I am giving as input is a cpp log file and when I am compiling it on windows using cygwin,it gives me the desired output but when I am compiling the code on a solaris by motorola processor it gives different output.It shows the addresses in reverese order,this is probably bcos of Big endian architecture.I need to convert the same to get the output as desired.
sample of output..........

1) Windows on a little endian machine.........o/p is (As desired)

Stack (top = 0x89b23fc):
089b23fc: ffffffff 00000000 089b243c 00000003 00d002fa 089b2430 089b23fc 089b2408

2) Solaris on a Big endian machine...........o/p is

Stack (top = fc239b08):
fc239b08: ffffffff 00000000 3c249b08 03000000 fa02d000 30249b08 fc239b08 08249b08

In 2,it shows the addresses in reverse order compared with 1.I need to swap the adresses in 2 to 1.I need to convert it from little ndian to big endian.

Please help me in doing this.

Thanks in Advance.
