KernelPlatform.IsOnUnix()
is more readable and less verbose than RuntimeInformation.IsOSPlatform(OSPlatform.Linux)
.
Extended Description
This code analyzer detects the usage of IsOSPlatform
from the RuntimeInformation
class found in the System.Runtime.InteropServices
namespace.
RuntimeInformation.IsOSPlatform
is a modern way of determining the current operating system that Nitrocid is running on. However, this isn't live detection.
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.
