Solaris 5.8 - BinaryFile - Endianness

I used a HEX Editor and converted the binary file to BIG-endian format. And, then I ran the same parser code. It still returns garbage 
So, keeping the original Binary File intact, while reading, how do I judge the native datatype for byte swapping order - because these n/w apis suggest something like this -
ntohs() - “network to host short”
Converts the unsigned short integer netshort from network byte order to host byte order.
ntohl() - “network to host long”
Converts the unsigned integer netlong from network byte order to host byte order.

tslmendian
TSLMENDIAN(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation TSLMENDIAN(1) NAME
tslmendian - change the byte-order of sunpinyin's threaded back-off language model SYNOPSIS
tslmendian [option] DESCRIPTION
slmendian converts the binary language model files used by SunPinyin from big-endian to small-endian or vice versa. OPTIONS
-e endian Specify the output-lm-file's endian-ness. It can be le or ge. If not given, tslmendian uses the host's endian-ness. -v Prints out the endian-ness of input-lm-file. -i input-lm-file Identify the input file of convert. Generally, this file is generated by slmthread or tslmpack. -o out-lm-file Identify the output file of convert. NOTES
The converted output file is equivalent to the input. But if you compare the output of tslminfo of both files, the ARPA file generated by tslminfo may different. This is due to the different precision in different machines. And due to uninitialized padding data in data structure, the checksum of the original data file may different from the converted-back file, even though they are identical from SunPinyin's point of view.
