如果您采用反转单词中位序的常见模式，并剔除每个字节中反转位的部分，那么您将只剩下反转单词中的字节的部分。对于64位:

x = ((x & 0x00000000ffffffff) << 32) ^ ((x >> 32) & 0x00000000ffffffff);
x = ((x & 0x0000ffff0000ffff) << 16) ^ ((x >> 16) & 0x0000ffff0000ffff);
x = ((x & 0x00ff00ff00ff00ff) <<  8) ^ ((x >>  8) & 0x00ff00ff00ff00ff);

编译器应该清除多余的位屏蔽操作(我把它们留在了突出显示模式)，但如果它没有，你可以这样重写第一行:

x = ( x                       << 32) ^  (x >> 32);

在大多数架构上，这通常应该简化为一条旋转指令(忽略整个操作可能是一条指令)。

在RISC处理器上，大而复杂的常量可能会导致编译困难。不过，您可以简单地计算前一个的每个常数。像这样:

uint64_t k = 0x00000000ffffffff; /* compiler should know a trick for this */
x = ((x & k) << 32) ^ ((x >> 32) & k);
k ^= k << 16;
x = ((x & k) << 16) ^ ((x >> 16) & k);
k ^= k << 8;
x = ((x & k) <<  8) ^ ((x >>  8) & k);

如果你愿意，你可以把它写成一个循环。这样做效率不高，只是为了好玩:

int i = sizeof(x) * CHAR_BIT / 2;
uintmax_t k = (1 << i) - 1;
while (i >= 8)
{
    x = ((x & k) << i) ^ ((x >> i) & k);
    i >>= 1;
    k ^= k << i;
}

为了完整起见，这里是第一种形式的简化32位版本:

x = ( x               << 16) ^  (x >> 16);
x = ((x & 0x00ff00ff) <<  8) ^ ((x >>  8) & 0x00ff00ff);

如果你有c++ 17，那么添加这个头文件

#include <algorithm>

使用这个模板函数交换字节:

template <typename T>
void swapEndian(T& buffer)
{
    static_assert(std::is_pod<T>::value, "swapEndian support POD type only");
    char* startIndex = static_cast<char*>((void*)buffer.data());
    char* endIndex = startIndex + sizeof(buffer);
    std::reverse(startIndex, endIndex);
}

这样称呼它:

swapEndian (stlContainer);

*  encoding.

认真……我不明白为什么所有的解决方案都那么复杂!最简单、最通用的模板函数如何?它可以在任何操作系统的任何情况下交换任何大小的任何类型????

template <typename T>
void SwapEnd(T& var)
{
    static_assert(std::is_pod<T>::value, "Type must be POD type for safety");
    std::array<char, sizeof(T)> varArray;
    std::memcpy(varArray.data(), &var, sizeof(T));
    for(int i = 0; i < static_cast<int>(sizeof(var)/2); i++)
        std::swap(varArray[sizeof(var) - 1 - i],varArray[i]);
    std::memcpy(&var, varArray.data(), sizeof(T));
}

这是C和c++结合的神奇力量!只需逐个字符交换原始变量。

要点1:没有操作符:请记住，我没有使用简单的赋值操作符“=”，因为当反转字节序时，一些对象将被打乱，复制构造函数(或赋值操作符)将不起作用。因此，一个字符一个字符地复制它们更加可靠。

Point 2: Be aware of alignment issues: Notice that we're copying to and from an array, which is the right thing to do because the C++ compiler doesn't guarantee that we can access unaligned memory (this answer was updated from its original form for this). For example, if you allocate uint64_t, your compiler cannot guarantee that you can access the 3rd byte of that as a uint8_t. Therefore, the right thing to do is to copy this to a char array, swap it, then copy it back (so no reinterpret_cast). Notice that compilers are mostly smart enough to convert what you did back to a reinterpret_cast if they're capable of accessing individual bytes regardless of alignment.

使用此函数:

double x = 5;
SwapEnd(x);

现在x的字节序不同了。

查找位移位，因为这基本上是所有你需要做的交换从小->大端dian。然后根据位的大小，改变位移位的方式。
