ReactOS 0.3.8 (Default branch)
Image ReactOS is an advanced operating system providing a ground-up implementation of a Microsoft Windows XP compatible operating system. It aims to achieve complete binary compatibility with both applications and device drivers meant for NT and XP operating systems by using a similar architecture and providing a complete and equivalent public interface. License: GNU General Public License (GPL) Changes:
Various bugfixes and enhancements to kernel core services (e.g. registry, system information routines, sync primitives like guarded mutex, I/O support, and others). An initiative has been started to fix the remaining unstable parts of the kernel: Memory Manager, caching code, and filesystem driver APIs and other dependencies of Mm. Introduction of a new Portable Structured Exception Handling mechanism (PSEH 2.0). Various GDI drawing problems were fixed. Image

NAME

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

VERSION

       version 1.003

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.
