'abcd' is platform endian. See http://svn.red-bean.com/bob/python24-fat/Python/mactoolboxglue.c /* Convert a 4-char string object argument to an OSType value */ int PyMac_GetOSType(PyObject *v, OSType *pr) { uint32_t tmp; if (!PyString_Check(v) || PyString_Size(v) != 4) { PyErr_SetString(PyExc_TypeError, "OSType arg must be string of 4 chars"); return 0; } memcpy((char *)&tmp, PyString_AsString(v), 4); *pr = (OSType)ntohl(tmp); return 1; } /* Convert an OSType value to a 4-char string object */ PyObject * PyMac_BuildOSType(OSType t) { uint32_t tmp = htonl((uint32_t)t); return PyString_FromStringAndSize((char *)&tmp, 4); } -bob _______________________________________________ Pythonmac-SIG maillist - Pythonmac-SIG@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonmac-sig
