Namespaces
namespace	dlr
namespace	dlr::common
Enumerations
enum	dlr::common::ByteOrder { dlr::common::DLR_BIG_ENDIAN, dlr::common::DLR_LITTLE_ENDIAN }
	This enum provides a convenient way to represent the various machine-dependent byte orderings. More...
Functions
ByteOrder	dlr::common::getByteOrder ()
template<class Type>
void	dlr::common::switchByteOrder (Type *dataPtr, size_t numberOfElements, ByteOrder fromByteOrder, ByteOrder toByteOrder)
	This function takes a pointer to a C-style array of values and modifies the array in place so that it has a particular byte order.
template<class Type>
void	dlr::common::switchByteOrder (const Type *fromDataPtr, size_t numberOfElements, Type *toDataPtr, ByteOrder fromByteOrder, ByteOrder toByteOrder)
	This function takes a pointer to a C-style array of values and copies it into another C-style array, swapping bytes if necessary so that the output array has the specified byte order.
