- All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<Endianness>

      public enum Endianness
      extends java.lang.Enum<Endianness>

  Enumeration for specifying the endianness of the image.

    Enum Constants
    Enum Constant and Description
    `BIG_ENDIAN` Big endian, most significant byte first, MSB, Motorola Format.
    `DEFAULT` Default endianness.
    `LITTLE_ENDIAN` Little endian, least significant byte first, LSB, Intel Format.

  - ### Method Summary

    All Methods Static Methods Concrete Methods
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `static Endianness` | `getEndianType(java.lang.String value)` Translates an endian type specified in the configuration file into the equivalent type should one exist.
    `static Endianness` | `valueOf(java.lang.String name)` Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name.
    `static Endianness[]` | `values()` Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.

    - #### DEFAULT

          public static final Endianness DEFAULT

      Default endianness. This can be different depending on the output format or is used when the image format doesn't allow to specify the endianness.

    - #### LITTLE_ENDIAN

          public static final Endianness LITTLE_ENDIAN

      Little endian, least significant byte first, LSB, Intel Format.

    - #### BIG_ENDIAN

          public static final Endianness BIG_ENDIAN

      Big endian, most significant byte first, MSB, Motorola Format.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### values

          public static Endianness[] values()

      Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

          for (Endianness c : Endianness.values())
              System.out.println(c);

      Returns:
        an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

    - #### valueOf

          public static Endianness valueOf(java.lang.String name)

      Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
      Parameters:
        `name` - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
      Returns:
        the enum constant with the specified name
      Throws:
        `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
        `java.lang.NullPointerException` - if the argument is null

    - #### getEndianType

          public static Endianness getEndianType(java.lang.String value)

      Translates an endian type specified in the configuration file into the equivalent type should one exist.
      Parameters:
        `value` - The value specified in the configration file
      Returns:
        Returns the Endianess object of the found type. If no type matches it returns null.
