Integer Byte Order Conversion

The following calls provide integer byte order conversions:

Notes:

  1. A long integer is 32 bits: for example, an internet address.

  2. A short integer is 16 bits: for example, a port number.

  3. The TPF system does not use the integer byte order conversion functions because the host byte order used in the TPF system is equivalent to the network byte order.
