It seems pointer conversion like
*(uint*)is widely used to read/write data. The result might be influenced by endianness of the running machine per my understanding, thus the value read/written might be incorrect on big-endian machine. Am I misunderstanding something? Is it a better choise using methods like WriteUInt32LittleEndian/ReadUInt32LittleEndian in BinaryPrimitives?Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
