[DUG] C code help

Direct translation:

const
  TAG_FIELD_FLAG_DATA_TYPE_MASK = 6;
  TAG_FIELD_FLAG_DATA_TYPE_TEXT_UTF8 = 0 shl 1;
  TAG_FIELD_FLAG_DATA_TYPE_BINARY= 1 shl 1;
  TAG_FIELD_FLAG_DATA_TYPE_EXTERNAL_INFO = 2 shl 1;
  TAG_FIELD_FLAG_DATA_TYPE_RESERVED = 3 shl 1;

Just to clarify this a bit...

An audio file tag format uses 4 bytes to store a flag to indicate whether 
text or binary information is stored in the following tag.  The C++ source 
code uses these definitions

#define TAG_FIELD_FLAG_DATA_TYPE_MASK           (6)
#define TAG_FIELD_FLAG_DATA_TYPE_TEXT_UTF8      (0 << 1)
#define TAG_FIELD_FLAG_DATA_TYPE_BINARY         (1 << 1)
#define TAG_FIELD_FLAG_DATA_TYPE_EXTERNAL_INFO  (2 << 1)
#define TAG_FIELD_FLAG_DATA_TYPE_RESERVED       (3 << 1)

Am I correct in assuming that a Binary flag will appear like this in the 
file (in Hex).

00 00 00 02

Effectively a big endian value of 02.  Is this correct?

Thanks,
Ross.

  > So TAG_FIELD_FLAG_DATA_TYPE is a one-bit flag stored in the 
2nd-rightmost bit of the word, and its possible values are TEXT_UTF8 (value 
0) and BINARY (value 1).

  I see.  Thanks for that.

  Cheers,
  Ross.

    That's the bitwise shift-left operator. So, 0 shifted left 1 bit is 
still zero, 1 shifted left 1 bit is 2. 1 shifted left 30 bits would be (hex) 
40000000.
