Accessing bytes of long data type

I know that longs are stored MSB first in memory. I need to access individual bytes of a long in order to send them out the SPI port. There are a number of ways to do this, I'd like your opinion on which...

Efficiently splitting a long int into bytes

Hi All, This is related to my previous post, "Efficiently combining bytes into a long int". I'd like to find an efficient way to do this. My current implementation (below) results in (unnecessary...
Efficiently combining bytes into a long int

Hi, I'm having problems assembling a set of 4 bytes into a long int. My approach has been this: ulong temp; temp = (temp << SHIFT_BYTE) | getByte(); temp = (temp << SHIFT_BYTE) | getByte();...
