    #include <db.h>

    int
    DB->get_byteswapped(DB *db);

# Description

The DB->get_byteswapped function returns 0 if the underlying database files were created on an architecture of the same byte order as the current one, and 1 if they were not (i.e., big-endian on a little-endian machine or vice-versa). This field may be used to determine if application data needs to be adjusted for this architecture or not.
