from ImfHeader.h and ImfHeader.C:


//
// The MAGIC number is stored in the first four bytes of every
// OpenEXR image file.  This can be used to quickly test whether
// a given file is an OpenEXR image file (see isImfMagic(), below).
//

const int MAGIC = 20000630;



bool
isImfMagic (const char bytes[4])
{
    return bytes[0] == ((MAGIC >>  0) & 0x00ff) &&
           bytes[1] == ((MAGIC >>  8) & 0x00ff) &&
           bytes[2] == ((MAGIC >> 16) & 0x00ff) &&
           bytes[3] == ((MAGIC >> 24) & 0x00ff);
}
