Im afraid I can't do that. Im writing to a specific file format that is binary and big-endian.

OK. No Problem.

Am I still going to run into problems on machines (with a different endian than the machine that wrote the file) when they try to decode it?

How do I go about swapping bytes (little endian -> big endian and visa-versa) in a platform independent way.

I saw this:


float FloatSwap( float f )
{
union
{
float f;

Google Is Awesome :)

wxWigets, GTK, QT, FLTK to name a few cross-platform gui toolkits.

You can of course use win32 api
