qFromLittleEndian what includes to use?

[nunyabeezwax]

I cannot figure out how to use qFromLittleEndian on Mac in xcode! I have included:

#include <QtGlobal>
#include <QGlobalStatic>
#include <qendian.h> 
  long size;
  long = some_function_to_read_a_file_written_by_PC()
  size = qFromLittleEndian( size );

#include <QtGlobal>
#include <QGlobalStatic>
#include <qendian.h> 
  long size;
  long = some_function_to_read_a_file_written_by_PC()
  size = qFromLittleEndian( size );

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

and nothing seems to work. I searched this forum and the "newbie" and there were posts but no one ever seems to have made it work or at least they were not nice enough to explain it back to the forum.

I am on a ppc mac.

Both <qendian.h> and <QtEndian> should work. See also this thread: what include for qFromLittleEndian

jpn,

Well the long and short of my issue is that Qt does not support a "long" data type, so the header really has nothing to do with my issue!

thanks so much, we are done!

Ahh, it "doesn't work" in that way. The introduction to the problem suggested to me that the problem was all about including the header...
