[ts-7000] my what a big endian you have !

Hi,

I would like some confirmation of what I think is happening with an 
exit value.

I have a cgi that is written in C and a control prog based on 
adc_logger also in C. These both then run on the ARM.


char get_portA ()
{
  return(*portA_dr);
}

....

  pump_state=get_portA();

.....

  fprintf(stderr,"pump_state on return=%d",pump_state);
  if (state_request) exit(get_portA()); 
...
} // end of main


I call this from my cgi responder:

        strcpy(cmd,"./adc_logger -s");
        if ( 0>(resp=system(cmd)) ) {  // -1 fork failed
...
        } else {
          printf(text_head);
          printf("pump_state=%d\n",resp);
          exit(0);


Now the error log shows pump_state=23 , which was correct but by the 
time it gets back the browser on x86 it's 5888 , as hex 1700 !

So there seems to be byte reversal.

Is this due to archectecture differences?! I dont think I need to 
know the hardware to get the correct answer so why is this happening?

BTW , I call the cgi via an xhttp object in javascript.

Thanks for any help.
