  I did some investigation and found out that libiphone's code except AFC should be endian safe. For AFC a patch is attached that should make it work on big endian machines too. However I have no hardware to test it on, so perhaps somebody may verify this.

  I need someone to test this on the proper machine before I can apply.

  • Assigned user cleared.
  • State changed from “open” to “hold”
  • Milestone changed from “1.0 Release” to “1.2.0 Release”

  Following options to test:

  • Some QEMU image
  • An older Mac
  • ARM distro packages in big-endian mode

  I think we can for sure hold this back until we have properly tested it.
  As whatever issues it might cause, it still won't affect the public API, only private code.

  If anyone takes the challenge to make it run on a big endian machine, he'll sure be able to verify this patch and libiphone functionality.

  Once verified we can then ship a new release with the internals taking endianness into account which should easily be possible past 1.0.

  Moving this on hold unless someone comes up with a test of course. :)

  (from [12a44afce569c2cdf31018c259745e09b13bffc3]) added endian safety to AFC

  This should make libiphone compatible with big endian machines.
