如何在c++中转换大端值和小端值?

为了清晰起见,我必须将二进制数据(双精度浮点值以及32位和64位整数)从一个CPU架构转换到另一个CPU架构。这并不涉及网络,因此ntoh()和类似的函数在这里不能工作。


注意:我接受的答案直接适用于我的目标编译器(这就是我选择它的原因)。然而,这里还有其他非常好的、更方便的答案。

如果一个大端位32位无符号整数看起来像0xAABBCCDD,它等于2864434397,那么同样的32位无符号整数在小端位处理器上看起来像0xDDCCBBAA,它也等于2864434397。

如果一个大端序16位无符号空头看起来像0xAABB,它等于43707,那么同一个16位无符号空头在小端序处理器上看起来像0xBBAA,它也等于43707。

这里有两个方便的#define函数,用于将字节从小端序转换为大端序,反之亦然——>

// can be used for short, unsigned short, word, unsigned word (2-byte types)
#define BYTESWAP16(n) (((n&0xFF00)>>8)|((n&0x00FF)<<8))

// can be used for int or unsigned int or float (4-byte types)
#define BYTESWAP32(n) ((BYTESWAP16((n&0xFFFF0000)>>16))|((BYTESWAP16(n&0x0000FFFF))<<16))

// can be used for unsigned long long or double (8-byte types)
#define BYTESWAP64(n) ((BYTESWAP32((n&0xFFFFFFFF00000000)>>32))|((BYTESWAP32(n&0x00000000FFFFFFFF))<<32))

这里有一个基本的函数来交换大小端序。它是基本的,但不需要补充库。

void endianness_swap(uint32_t& val) {
    uint8_t a, b, c;
    a = (val & 0xFF000000) >> 24;
    b = (val & 0x00FF0000) >> 16;
    c = (val & 0x0000FF00) >> 8;
    val=(val & 0x000000FF) << 24;
    val = val + (c << 16) + (b << 8) + (a);
}

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。

和在C中一样:

short big = 0xdead;
short little = (((big & 0xff)<<8) | ((big & 0xff00)>>8));

您还可以声明一个无符号字符的向量,将输入值memcpy放入其中,将字节反向转换为另一个向量,然后将字节memcpy取出,但这将花费比旋转位长几个数量级的时间,特别是对于64位值。
