RE: [edlug] OT: Linux-Windows datastructure exchange C++
Its a pretty low power embedded system. The datastructures are sent over
a sub-sea acoustic modem so the packing is very important.
Trying to keep everything as lightweight as possible, I'm not sure if
corba/dcom/etc fits in. If it did then it would still have to support
the packing feature.
An Intel only architecture lead the project to assume little-endian data
only (not my decision). Non-Intel compatibly is not a concern.
Thanks,
Paul
