The following code is meant for a Big-endian processor running
linux. The code reads binary files and assigns values to
C-structures. The same data files need to be read in perl in Windows on little endian x86. Any tips on doing the translation?
typedef struct s_str_boo
{
unsigned short type;
int x;
int y;
int w;
int h;
int v2;
unsigned short s1;
unsigned short s2;
} str_boo;
typedef struct s_str_foo
{
unsigned int aui;
str_boo boo[16];
unsigned short aus;
struct s_str_foo *next;
} str_foo;
file = fopen("foo.dat", "r+b");
fread((void*)&an_uint, sizeof(char), sizeof(unsigned int), file);
fread((void*)tmpfoo, sizeof(char), sizeof(str_foo), file);

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
