13 bfd_boolean bfd_write_bigendian_4byte_int (bfd *, unsigned int);
15 @strong{Description}@*
16 Write a 4 byte integer @var{i} to the output BFD @var{abfd}, in big
17 endian order regardless of what else is going on. This is useful in
21 @subsubsection @code{bfd_put_size}
23 @subsubsection @code{bfd_get_size}
24 @strong{Description}@*
25 These macros as used for reading and writing raw data in
26 sections; each access (except for bytes) is vectored through
27 the target format of the BFD and mangled accordingly. The
28 mangling performs any necessary endian translations and
29 removes alignment restrictions. Note that types accepted and
30 returned by these macros are identical so they can be swapped
31 around in macros---for example, @file{libaout.h} defines @code{GET_WORD}
32 to either @code{bfd_get_32} or @code{bfd_get_64}.
34 In the put routines, @var{val} must be a @code{bfd_vma}. If we are on a
35 system without prototypes, the caller is responsible for making
36 sure that is true, with a cast if necessary. We don't cast
37 them in the macro definitions because that would prevent @code{lint}
38 or @code{gcc -Wall} from detecting sins such as passing a pointer.
39 To detect calling these with less than a @code{bfd_vma}, use
40 @code{gcc -Wconversion} on a host with 64 bit @code{bfd_vma}'s.

100 These macros have the same function as their @code{bfd_get_x}
101 brethren, except that they are used for removing information
102 for the header records of object files. Believe it or not,
103 some object files keep their header records in big endian
104 order and their data in little endian order.
