#93727 - Platform-dependence Responding to: ???'s previous message |
Michael Karas said:
Do note that the scheme on another platform may require a different coding if a long were an 8-byte number or if the stored order of bytes was different. This is of fundamental impotance when using unions in this way! You should assume that a different coding will be required on a different platform, until proven otherwise. The key issues to consider are: Note that even different compilers on the same target processor may use different schemes! |

| Hmm | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Actually, even less. | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
