NSData and endianness

List,

Which is the most reliable and forward compatible method for the
encoding of a c-style array as an NSData object for use in Core Data?

Currently I'm using an NSMutableData object with:

"- (void)appendBytes:(const void *)bytes length:(unsigned)length" to
incrementally build the NSData object as I interate the c-style array.

I'm wary of endianness issues, but unsure as to whether or not they
apply in this situation?

This situation is roughly this:

1. myApp converts existing fileformats to produce a series of c-style arrays
2. myApp encodes arrays as NSData objects to store as CoreData attributes.

Thanks.
