Ah, I've been thinking about this issue too much and have confused myself. And, I have expressed it as an XY Problem! :-(
My real question should have been: if I write a byte to a file on one architecture, will the byte be the same on all other architectures (i.e. 386, amd64, arm, s390x, ppc64le) if read by a Go program on them? Sorry for my confusion. :-) Thanks, Glen On Monday, February 27, 2017 at 4:45:19 PM UTC-5, Glen Newton wrote: > > > > Given a byte b, how do I convert it to a byte of particular endianness? > It is not clear to me looking at "encoding/binary" > > (I am assuming that golang byte endianness varies across architectures. > If this is wrong please educate me). :-) > > Thanks, > Glen > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
