This was actually tested on various platforms of different 32/64 endian combinations. And the test consisted of running ALL serialization tests as is done with the "official" archive implementations. To me, the main problem is that its missing support for floating point types. Including such support in a definitive, portable manner would be a significant effort which so far no one has deigned to undertake.
Please forgive my ignorance, but what is 'floating point types'? QDataStream simply dump the internal presentation of float or double numbers and swap them for big small endian coding if necessary...
The internal presentation is not the same on all platforms. Matthias
