   <p><strong>Description</strong><br>
 | 
						|
Write a 4 byte integer <var>i</var> to the output BFD <var>abfd</var>, in big
 | 
						|
endian order regardless of what else is going on.  This is useful in
 | 
						|
archives.

<h5 class="subsubsection">2.15.1.3 <code>bfd_get_size</code></h5>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
 | 
						|
These macros as used for reading and writing raw data in
 | 
						|
sections; each access (except for bytes) is vectored through
 | 
						|
the target format of the BFD and mangled accordingly. The
 | 
						|
mangling performs any necessary endian translations and
 | 
						|
removes alignment restrictions.  Note that types accepted and
 | 
						|
returned by these macros are identical so they can be swapped
 | 
						|
around in macros—for example, <span class="file">libaout.h</span> defines <code>GET_WORD</code>
 | 
						|
to either <code>bfd_get_32</code> or <code>bfd_get_64</code>.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
   <p>In the put routines, <var>val</var> must be a <code>bfd_vma</code>.  If we are on a
 | 
						|
system without prototypes, the caller is responsible for making
 | 
						|
sure that is true, with a cast if necessary.  We don't cast
 | 
						|
them in the macro definitions because that would prevent <code>lint</code>
 | 
						|
or <code>gcc -Wall</code> from detecting sins such as passing a pointer. 
 | 
						|
To detect calling these with less than a <code>bfd_vma</code>, use
 | 
						|
<code>gcc -Wconversion</code> on a host with 64 bit <code>bfd_vma</code>'s.

some object files keep their header records in big endian
