How to write this php code in c++

Question

$x = pack("N", $num1).pack("N", $num2).$data;

I am trying to do it with

 union unionchal {
  struct ast{
   unsigned long a;
   unsigned long b;
   char c[8];
  } chal;
  unsigned char response[16];
 };

ast being the input and response being the output

It is meant to output yp¶ ‚¬þÖHpö€ì_± but gives ¶pyßêÈ)ÖHpöì_

I think it's got something to do with it being big endian byte order

I also think so. You may use htonl() for example, to change the byte order on little-endian machines, or write your own byte-swapping function (but then you'll have to test yourself what the byte order of the host machine is).

Try using htonl on your integers before placing them into the structure. It will convert them into big-endian order. If you need 64-bit longs, see the discussion about it on SE.
