Endianness

To interpret a decoded package, it´s endianness needs to be known.
For efficiency, binary trice data are normally stored and transmitted in MCU endianness and the Trice tool expects binary data in little endian format as most MCUs are little endian.
On big endian MCUs the compiler switch TRICE_MCU_IS_BIG_ENDIAN needs to be defined as 1 and TRICE_TRANSFER_ORDER_IS_BIG_ENDIAN should have the same value. The Trice tool has a CLI switch “triceEndianness” which needs to be set to “bigEndian” then.
If trice transmit data are needed to be not in MCU order for some reason, that increases the critical trice storage time and target code amount.
De facto different values for TRICE_MCU_IS_BIG_ENDIAN and TRICE_TRANSFER_ORDER_IS_BIG_ENDIAN are mainly used to test the Trice CLI switch -triceEndianness bigEndian automatically.
