VERSION
This document describes version 0.11 of Perl::osnames (from Perl distribution Perl-osnames), released on 2014-12-19.DESCRIPTION
This package contains $data which lists possible values of $^O along with description for each. It also provides some helper functions.Tags
-
unix
Unix-like operating systems. This currently excludes beos/haiku.
-
bsd
BSD-derived Unix operating systems.
-
sysv
SysV-derived Unix operating systems.
-
posix
For POSIX-compliant OSes, including fully-, mostly-, and largely-compliant ones (source: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/POSIX>).
From what I can gather, dec_osf is not POSIX compliant, although there is a posix package for it.
VARIABLES
None are exported by default, but they are exportable.$data
An arrayref of records (arrayrefs), each structured as:
[$name, \@tags, $description]
FUNCTIONS
None are exported by default, but they are exportable.is_posix([ $os ]) => bool
Check whether $os (defaults to $^O if not specified) is POSIX (checked by the existence of "posix" tag on the OS's record in $data). Will return 0, 1, or undef if $os is unknown.is_unix([ $os ]) => bool
Check whether $os (defaults to $^O if not specified) is Unix (checked by the existence of "unix" tag on the OS's record in $data). Will return 0, 1, or undef if $os is unknown.HOMEPAGE
