 * $Log: fread_be.C,v $
 * Revision 1.7  2016/12/05 16:18:11  j_novak
 * Suppression of some global variables (file names, loch, ...) to prevent redefinitions
 *
 * Revision 1.6  2014/10/13 08:53:32  j_novak
 * Lorene classes and functions now belong to the namespace Lorene.
 *
 * Revision 1.5  2014/10/06 15:16:11  j_novak
 * Modified #include directives to use c++ syntax.
 *
 * Revision 1.4  2009/01/19 15:23:17  j_novak
 * Change of some casts to avoid warnings
 *
 * Revision 1.3  2008/08/19 06:42:01  j_novak
 * Minor modifications to avoid warnings with gcc 4.3. Most of them concern
 * cast-type operations, and constant strings that must be defined as const char*
 *
 * Revision 1.2  2001/12/13 15:01:19  e_gourgoulhon
 * Array bytes_big now created with a new char[]
 *
 * Revision 1.1  2001/12/04 21:32:39  e_gourgoulhon
 * Functions similar to the stdio fread/fwrite except that they ensure
 * the big endian convention, whatever the system convention is.
 *
 * Revision 1.1  2001/11/23 15:09:09  e_gourgoulhon
 * Templates for new source files
