Method Detail

isWindows

boolean isWindows()

Returns true if this NativeUtil is instanceof WindowsNativeUtil and supports the Windows API functions.

isLinux

boolean isLinux()

Returns true if this NativeUtil is instanceof LinuxNativeUtil and supports the Linux API functions.

isJVM

boolean isJVM()

Returns true if this NativeUtil is instanceof JVMNativeUtil and supports the JVM/JNI API functions.

isNoop

boolean isNoop()

Returns true if this NativeUtil does not implement any useful functions. This indicates a jvm running on a platform not supported by JavaNativeUtils. (Apple OSX for example) or a failure to load the native libraries in which case taking a look at NativeUtils.getNativeLibraryBinaries() may help.

isFreeBSD

boolean isFreeBSD()

returns true if this NativeUtil is instanceof FreeBSDNativeUtil and supports the FreeBSD API functions.

isNetBSD

boolean isNetBSD()

returns true if this NativeUtil is instanceof NetBSDNativeUtil and supports the NetBSD API functions.

isPosix

boolean isPosix()

returns true if this NativeUtil is instanceof PosixNativeUtil and supports the POSIX API functions.
