Keys
Platforms (required)
Gives a list of platforms. Each entry in the list is itself a key-value pair:
the key is the name of the platform and the value list contains various
attributes of the platform. The ModuleName, ModuleFile, and Files
attributes must be specified for each platform unless an
EquivalentPlatform attribute is specified. The platform string is in
the following format: system name:OS release:architecture. The installer
obtains these values from NSPR. OS release is an empty string on
non-Unix operating systems. The following system names and
platforms are currently defined by NSPR:
• AIX (rs6000)
• BSDI (x86)
• FREEBSD (x86)
• HPUX (hppa1.1)
• IRIX (mips)
• LINUX (ppc, alpha, x86)
• MacOS (PowerPC)
• NCR (x86)
• NEC (mips)
• OS2 (x86)
• OSF (alpha)
• ReliantUNIX (mips)
• SCO (x86)
• SOLARIS (sparc)
• SONY (mips)
• SUNOS (sparc)
• UnixWare (x86)
• WIN16 (x86)
• WIN95 (x86)
• WINNT (x86)
Here are some examples of valid platform strings:
IRIX:6.2:mips
SUNOS:5.5.1:sparc
Linux:2.0.32:x86
WIN95::x86.
