How to find machine is Big/little endian?

Hi,

Can any one tell me that how to find machine on which we are working i.e. Big/Little Endian in using java?

One of my friend told me that in C Programming we can find this by using following code:

#include <stdio.h>

#include <arpa/inet.h>

int main(){

if (htons(1) == 1) puts("big endian");

else puts("little endian");

return 0;

}

Can any one help me in solving this mystery?

Cheers,

Ram
