Macros
Detailed Description
The <QtProcessorDetection> header file declares a range of macros (Q_PROCESSOR_*) that are defined if the application is compiled for specified processor architectures. For example, the Q_PROCESSOR_X86 macro is defined if the application is compiled for x86 processors.
The purpose of these macros is to enable programmers to add architecture-specific code to their application.
Macro Documentation
QT_POINTER_SIZE
Expands to the size of a pointer in bytes (4 or 8). This is equivalent to sizeof(void *) but can be used in a preprocessor directive.
Q_BIG_ENDIAN
This macro represents a value you can compare to the macro Q_BYTE_ORDER to determine the endian-ness of your system. In a big-endian system, the most significant byte is stored at the lowest address. The other bytes follow in decreasing order of significance.
#if Q_BYTE_ORDER == Q_BIG_ENDIAN ... #endif
See also Q_BYTE_ORDER and Q_LITTLE_ENDIAN.
Q_BYTE_ORDER
This macro can be used to determine the byte order your system uses for storing data in memory. i.e., whether your system is little-endian or big-endian. It is set by Qt to one of the macros Q_LITTLE_ENDIAN or Q_BIG_ENDIAN. You normally won't need to worry about endian-ness, but you might, for example if you need to know which byte of an integer or UTF-16 character is stored in the lowest address. Endian-ness is important in networking, where computers with different values for Q_BYTE_ORDER must pass data back and forth.
Use this macro as in the following examples.
#if Q_BYTE_ORDER == Q_BIG_ENDIAN ... #endif or #if Q_BYTE_ORDER == Q_LITTLE_ENDIAN ... #endif
See also Q_BIG_ENDIAN and Q_LITTLE_ENDIAN.
Q_LITTLE_ENDIAN
This macro represents a value you can compare to the macro Q_BYTE_ORDER to determine the endian-ness of your system. In a little-endian system, the least significant byte is stored at the lowest address. The other bytes follow in increasing order of significance.
#if Q_BYTE_ORDER == Q_LITTLE_ENDIAN ... #endif
