The build platform to match against the platform specification
The specification being matched. It must either be an empty string or start with a dash.
true if the given specification matches the build platform, false otherwise. Using an empty string as the platform specification will always result in a match.
auto platform = BuildPlatform(["posix", "linux"], ["x86_64"], "dmd"); assert(platform.matchesSpecification("")); assert(platform.matchesSpecification("posix")); assert(platform.matchesSpecification("linux")); assert(platform.matchesSpecification("linux-dmd")); assert(platform.matchesSpecification("linux-x86_64-dmd")); assert(platform.matchesSpecification("x86_64")); assert(!platform.matchesSpecification("windows")); assert(!platform.matchesSpecification("ldc")); assert(!platform.matchesSpecification("windows-dmd")); // Before PR#2279, a leading '-' was required assert(platform.matchesSpecification("-x86_64"));
Matches a platform specification string against a build platform.
Specifications are build upon the following scheme, where each component is optional (indicated by []), but the order is obligatory: "[-platform][-architecture][-compiler]"
So the following strings are valid specifications: "-windows-x86-dmd", "-dmd", "-arm", "-arm-dmd", "-windows-dmd"
