NAME¶

SDL_BYTEORDER - A macro that reports the target system's byte order.

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <SDL3/SDL_endian.h>

#define SDL_BYTEORDER   SDL_LIL_ENDIAN___or_maybe___SDL_BIG_ENDIAN

DESCRIPTION¶

This is set to either SDL_LIL_ENDIAN or SDL_BIG_ENDIAN (and maybe other values in the future, if something else becomes popular). This can be tested with the preprocessor, so decisions can be made at compile time.

#if SDL_BYTEORDER == SDL_BIG_ENDIAN
SDL_Log("This system is bigendian.");
#endif
    

AVAILABILITY¶

This macro is available since SDL 3.2.0.
