Does anybody have suggestions or references on how to deal with a debugger distributed across heterogeneous (with respect to endianness) hosts? Is the convert-sex operation always its own inverse? Examples of literature on such cross-or-districuted debuggers would be most welcome. (Simply mandating that conversion of all integer information to a common format occur is easy to say, but what I'm after is the analysis of how debuggers can reliably know when users are reaching after integer information or not.) Any ideas? -- ... and we went home and thought about what he had said, "Endeavor to Persevere".
