#124: Ensure I/O operations on images holding greater-than-8-bit values are robust w.r.t. endianness -----------------------+---------------------------------------------------- Reporter: levill_r | Owner: Olena Team Type: task | Status: new Priority: minor | Milestone: Olena 1.0ß Component: Milena | Version: 1.0 Resolution: | Keywords: -----------------------+---------------------------------------------------- Old description:

This might be difficult to check, since it's platform-dependant. At least, we should check this (with the build farm) on a host with an endianness different than IA-32's or Intel 64's (e.g., a SPARC station).

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endianness,

• Intel IA-32 (and probably Intel 64 and AMD 64) are little-endian;
• Motorola 68k, Sun SPARC and IBM System/370 processors are little-

endian;

• PowerPC, ARM, DEC Alpha, MIPS, HP PA-RISC and Intel IA-64 processors

are bi-endian.
