Hi,
Well the BitConverter documentation says that it operates on the raw bitstream, so this should be expected. Other than that afaik only the Buffer class works directly on raw data. And of course anything related to pointers will be endian-dependent as well. Greetings Andreas (other one) Von: mono-devel-list-boun...@lists.ximian.com [mailto:mono-devel-list-boun...@lists.ximian.com] Im Auftrag von Andreas Heertsch Gesendet: Montag, 21. September 2009 17:51 An: mono-devel-list@lists.ximian.com Betreff: [Mono-dev] list of platform-differences As I became aware, that BitConverter.GetBytes(0x1234) returns 0,0 on OSX I thought: that is a bug. But Miguel pointed out, that this depends on the platform OSX: "big-endian system (PowerPC) as opposed to a little endian system." Up to that I hoped, that mono would hide all differences of any plattform from my mono-app. But this seems not to be the case. (I think, this is a challenge!) Is there a list of platform specific differences, which have a reflection in mono? Andreas -- EndoTherm GmbH http://www.endotherm.ch
