Issue 102505

Hi

On the two big endian architectures i tried (sparc64 and powerpc) these programs
are unable to open types.rdb. I was not able to figure why just yet.

macppc-g5# ktrace ./registry/unxobsd.pro/bin/regview
offapi/type_reference/types.rdb 
open registry "offapi/type_reference/types.rdb" failed

The output of ktrace:
http://blade2k.humppa.hu/ktrace.out

Of course types.rdb is there and readable. What I suspect is that
convertToFileUrl() fails to return the correct string

       OUString regName( convertToFileUrl(argv[1]) );

        printf("%s\n", regName.pData);
        printf("%s\n", regName.pData->buffer);

        if (reg_openRegistry(regName.pData, &hReg, REG_READONLY))
        {
                fprintf(stderr, "open registry \"%s\" failed\n", argv[1]);
                exit(1);
        }

Both of my printfs are returning an empty string.
What I suspect is that it's an endianess problem.
