In‐core representation of a signed 32‐bit big‐endian integer.

== Synopsis

Declared in `<bdlb_bigendian.h>`

[source,cpp,subs="verbatim,replacements,macros,-callouts"]
----
class BigEndianInt32;
----

== Description

This class provides a container for an in‐core representation of a signed 32‐bit big‐endian integer. It supports a complete set of _value_ _semantic_ operations, including copy construction, assignment, equality comparison, `bsl::ostream` printing, and BDEX serialization. Note that the copy constructor and copy‐assignment operator are provided by the compiler. Any object of this class can be converted to an `int` allowing comparison with any other object of this class. This class is _exception_ _neutral_ with no guarantee of rollback: if an exception is thrown during the invocation of a method on a pre‐existing object, the object is left in a valid state, but its value is undefined. In no event is memory leaked. Finally, _aliasing_ (e.g., using all or part of an object as both source and destination) is supported in all cases.
