Hello Damien,

you may look into

http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v3.0.4/Documentation/networking/can.txt

as well as into some sample programs you can find in the trunk/test directory
of the SocketCAN SVN on BerliOS:

http://developer.berlios.de/svn/?group_id=6475

The identifier is always a 32 bit value you can access as shown in the
examples. No need to think about the endianess of this operations on
application level.

Regards,
Oliver
