    public boolean get_byteswapped();

# Description

The Db.get_byteswapped method returns false if the underlying database files were created on an architecture of the same byte order as the current one, and true 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.
