Hi,
Thanks for using the PRF form. I don't think you are seeing a problem, the
data is always marshaled in the endianess of the host TAO runs on, there is
a bit in the header indicating which endianess has been used. If you print
the values in the application code, is the value then the same? We have a
few gumstick boards here at our office, we already did build ACE and TAO for
it, we can assist with the gumstix board as part of our commercial services
as described on www.theaceorb.nl.
