DB→get_byteswapped

						#include <db.h>
						int
						DB→get_byteswapped(DB *db);
					

Description

The DB→get_byteswapped function returns 0 if the underlying database files were created on an architecture of the same byte order as the current one, and 1 if they were not (that is, big-endian on a little-endian machine, or vice versa). This field may be used to determine whether application data needs to be adjusted for this architecture or not.
