Package: gnat-4.4 Version: 4.4.3-1 Severity: normal The output of write_stream is different regarding the architecture it is executed : powerpc (big endian): hexdump -C ./output_stream.dat 00000000 fa da da da de ad be ef amd64 (little endian): 00000000 ef be ad de da da da fa i386 (little endian): 00000000 ef be ad de da da da fa mips (big endian): 00000000 fa da da da de ad be ef sparc (big endian): 00000000 fa da da da de ad be ef
As far as I understood streams, the output should be neutral regarding of the architecture. *** write_stream.adb with Ada.Streams.Stream_IO; with Interfaces; procedure Write_Stream is File : Ada.Streams.Stream_IO.File_Type; Item_To_Write : constant Interfaces.Unsigned_64 := 16#Fada_D_Ada_Dead_Beef#; Stream : Ada.Streams.Stream_IO.Stream_Access; begin Ada.Streams.Stream_IO.Create (File, Name => "output_stream.dat"); Stream := Ada.Streams.Stream_IO.Stream (File); Interfaces.Unsigned_64'Output (Stream, Item_To_Write); Ada.Streams.Stream_IO.Close (File); end Write_Stream; -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-2-powerpc64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnat-4.4 depends on: ii gcc-4.4 4.4.3-2 The GNU C compiler ii gnat-4.4-base 4.4.3-1 The GNU Compiler Collection (gnat ii libc6 2.10.2-5 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libc6-dev 2.10.2-5 Embedded GNU C Library: Developmen ii libgcc1 1:4.4.3-2 GCC support library ii libgmp3c2 2:4.3.2+dfsg-1 Multiprecision arithmetic library ii libgnat-4.4 4.4.3-1 Runtime library for GNU Ada applic ii libgnatprj4.4 4.4.3-1 GNU Ada Project Manager ii libgnatvsn4.4 4.4.3-1 GNU Ada compiler version library ii libmpfr1ldbl 2.4.2-3 multiple precision floating-point gnat-4.4 recommends no packages.
