Linux reaper.ColorFromNative() wrong r, g, b values returned

[heda]

REAPER 6.42 Linux x86-64/AMD64 64-bit

r,g,b = reaper.ColorFromNative(5432063)
reaper.ShowConsoleMsg("\n")
reaper.ShowConsoleMsg(r)
reaper.ShowConsoleMsg("\n")
reaper.ShowConsoleMsg(g)
reaper.ShowConsoleMsg("\n")
reaper.ShowConsoleMsg(b)

If Windows returns: r g b
255
226
82

On Linux I get: b g r
82
226
255

Sadly the byte-ordering of RGB vs BGR is backwards on REAPER/macOS and REAPER/Linux... :/ If you know the byte order, you should decompose the bytes yourself

ah ... ok thanks
I thought ColorFromNative was introduced exactly to address this issue between Mac and Windows and maybe Linux was not working the same. I have not received any issue from Mac users and I was not aware. I'm more confused now and I cannot test on Mac.
I think I'll just store colors as separated r g b values instead of one integer.
