17 # Still needed:
18 # * more support for WinCE
19 # * support for MS-DOS (PythonDX ?)
20 # * support for Amiga and other still unsupported platforms running Python
21 # * support for additional Linux distributions
23 # Many thanks to all those who helped adding platform-specific
24 # checks (in no particular order):

33 # History:
35 # <see CVS and SVN checkin messages for history>
37 # 1.0.6 - added linux_distribution()
38 # 1.0.5 - fixed Java support to allow running the module on Jython
39 # 1.0.4 - added IronPython support
40 # 1.0.3 - added normalization of Windows system name
41 # 1.0.2 - added more Windows support
42 # 1.0.1 - reformatted to make doc.py happy
43 # 1.0.0 - reformatted a bit and checked into Python CVS
44 # 0.8.0 - added sys.version parser and various new access
45 # APIs (python_version(), python_compiler(), etc.)
46 # 0.7.2 - fixed architecture() to use sizeof(pointer) where available
47 # 0.7.1 - added support for Caldera OpenLinux
48 # 0.7.0 - some fixes for WinCE; untabified the source file
49 # 0.6.2 - support for OpenVMS - requires version 1.5.2-V006 or higher and
50 # vms_lib.getsyi() configured
51 # 0.6.1 - added code to prevent 'uname -p' on platforms which are
52 # known not to support it
53 # 0.6.0 - fixed win32_ver() to hopefully work on Win95,98,NT and Win2k;
54 # did some cleanup of the interfaces - some APIs have changed
55 # 0.5.5 - fixed another type in the MacOS code... should have
56 # used more coffee today ;-)
57 # 0.5.4 - fixed a few typos in the MacOS code
58 # 0.5.3 - added experimental MacOS support; added better popen()
59 # workarounds in _syscmd_ver() -- still not 100% elegant
60 # though
61 # 0.5.2 - fixed uname() to return '' instead of 'unknown' in all
62 # return values (the system uname command tends to return
63 # 'unknown' instead of just leaving the field emtpy)
64 # 0.5.1 - included code for slackware dist; added exception handlers
65 # to cover up situations where platforms don't have os.popen
66 # (e.g. Mac) or fail on socket.gethostname(); fixed libc
67 # detection RE
68 # 0.5.0 - changed the API names referring to system commands to *syscmd*;
69 # added java_ver(); made syscmd_ver() a private
70 # API (was system_ver() in previous versions) -- use uname()
71 # instead; extended the win32_ver() to also return processor
72 # type information
73 # 0.4.0 - added win32_ver() and modified the platform() output for WinXX
74 # 0.3.4 - fixed a bug in _follow_symlinks()
75 # 0.3.3 - fixed popen() and "file" command invokation bugs
76 # 0.3.2 - added architecture() API and support for it in platform()
77 # 0.3.1 - fixed syscmd_ver() RE to support Windows NT
78 # 0.3.0 - added system alias support
79 # 0.2.3 - removed 'wince' again... oh well.
80 # 0.2.2 - added 'wince' to syscmd_ver() supported platforms
81 # 0.2.1 - added cache logic and changed the platform string format
82 # 0.2.0 - changed the API to use functions instead of module globals
83 # since some action take too long to be run on module import
84 # 0.1.0 - first release
