This code analyzer detects the comparison of Environment.OSVersion.Platform
against the Unix
value.
Environment.OSVersion.Platform
is an ancient way of determining the current operating system that Nitrocid is running on. As a result, it doesn't implement the macOS operating system detection, since it was considered as Unix.
As a result, KernelPlatform
implements a handful of platform detection functions to allow you to more accurately detect your platform. Also, it simplifies the complicated platform checking statements to its simpler equivalent.
To get a brief insight about how this analyzer works, compare the two code blocks shown to you below:
You can suppress this suggestion by including it in the appropriate place, whichever is convenient.

We recommend that every caller which use this function use the recommended abovementioned method.
