# Platform::Properties

This module provides information about the underlying platform (OS, architecture etc.) that Converge is running on. The following attributes are defined:

`BIG_ENDIAN`

`LITTLE_ENDIAN`

`case_sensitive_filenames` Set to 1 if the underlying platform generally uses case sensitive filenames, or 0 otherwise. Note that this does not guarantee that specific file systems will respect this setting.

`endianness` Currently set to either `BIG_ENDIAN` or `LITTLE_ENDIAN` as appropriate.

`osname` The name of the operating system.

`word_bits` Integer value of the number of bits in a machine word.
