• HeaderDecoder.EXE_32BITS: the value for 32 bits executables
• HeaderDecoder.EXE_64BITS: the value for 64 bits executables

Specified by:

getExecutableType in interface HeaderDecoder

Returns:

the executable architecture

getEndianness

public short getEndianness()

Return HeaderDecoder.ENDIAN_BIG_ENDIAN.

Specified by:

getEndianness in interface HeaderDecoder

Returns:

HeaderDecoder.ENDIAN_BIG_ENDIAN
