Is this a bug ?- it seems like one.

put binaryEncode("n", someNumber) into tBinNum
put empty into bdOutput
get binaryDecode("n", tBinNum, bdOutput)

"n" is the parameter for 2-byte signed integers in network byte order (bigEndian). "s" is the parameter for 2-byte signed integers in host byte order (littleEndian in my macIntel case).

If "someNumber" (the input) >= 0 then the output ("bdOutput") = the input as you'd expect, but if the input < 0, then I'm getting input <> output.

I'm on an intel Mac.

On the other hand, if I swap the two bytes of "tBinNum" and use "s" in the decode, then I get the right result ie.

put binaryEncode("n", someNumber) into tBinNum
put char 2 of tBinNum & char 1 of tBinNum into tBinNum -- swap
put empty into bdOutput
get binaryDecode("s", tBinNum, bdOutput)

input = output for any input.

Should I bugzilla this?


Best,

Mark
