perl::ostype

Perl::OSType(3perl)					 Perl Programmers Reference Guide				       Perl::OSType(3perl)

NAME

       Perl::OSType - Map Perl operating system names to generic types

VERSION

       version 1.002

SYNOPSIS

	 use Perl::OSType ':all';

	 $current_type = os_type();
	 $other_type = os_type('dragonfly'); # gives 'Unix'

DESCRIPTION

       Modules that provide OS-specific behaviors often need to know if the current operating system matches a more generic type of operating
       systems. For example, 'linux' is a type of 'Unix' operating system and so is 'freebsd'.

       This module provides a mapping between an operating system name as given by $^O and a more generic type.  The initial version is based on
       the OS type mappings provided in Module::Build and ExtUtils::CBuilder.  (Thus, Microsoft operating systems are given the type 'Windows'
       rather than 'Win32'.)

USAGE

       No functions are exported by default. The export tag ":all" will export all functions listed below.

   os_type()
	 $os_type = os_type();
	 $os_type = os_type('MSWin32');

       Returns a single, generic OS type for a given operating system name.  With no arguments, returns the OS type for the current value of $^O.
       If the operating system is not recognized, the function will return the empty string.

   is_os_type()
	 $is_windows = is_os_type('Windows');
	 $is_unix    = is_os_type('Unix', 'dragonfly');

       Given an OS type and OS name, returns true or false if the OS name is of the given type.  As with "os_type", it will use the current
       operating system as a default if no OS name is provided.
