Re: [libtorrent] Current CVS version functional?

[Iain H. <ia...@fl...>]

It seems that the problem I was having was caused by the hash being 
incorrect. I was able to track it back to sha1.c which assumes that the 
architecture is little endian in all cases. Specifically, all cases in 
the #ifdef assume that the macro LITTLE_ENDIAN should be defined thus 
causing blk0(i) not to be correctly defined (lines 110 - 117).  This is 
further complicated by the fact that both LITTLE_ENDIAN and BIG_ENDIAN 
are defined somewhere else, probably by one of the other included 
files.

I'm currently looking into where it is defined and what the correct big 
endian macro to use is so that I can put together a patch that will 
work on all big endian systems.  Apple's version of gcc sets 
__BIG_ENDIAN__ but I haven't been able to determine if this macro is 
universal.

As it stands right now, my problem is solved and I'll look into the 
correct macro to use so that it can be integrated into libtorrent.
