> The internal enum jdk.internal.util.Architecture does not provide information > about the big or little endianness or the address size (64 or 32 bits). The > endian-ness and address size are intrinsic to the architecture. > > The values of the enum are extended to separately identify the big endian and > little-endian uses of the ISA. > For example, `PPC64` and `PPC64LE` for the big and little-endian versions. > The enum values directly reflect the build-time artifacts and resulting > executables. > > This information about an architecture will make the enum more useful > especially to identify a target platform in a cross-platform use case. A > method is added to map well known aliases for the platforms to the > Architecture enum.
