Methods may use other modules or external programs. So far this only works on the current machine. =cut =head2 Methods =over 4 =item version( METHOD ); In scalar context, returns the numeric version of OS X, I 10.4.11. In list context, returns the list of the major, minor, point, name, and kernel versions. Some methods may not return all values, but the values will always be in the same positions. # 0 1 2 3 4 5 ( $major, $minor, $point, $name, $build, $kernel ); The available methods are list in "Ways of collecting info". Use the subroutine name as C. For instance: my @list = Mac::OSVersion->version( 'gestalt' ); =item methods() Returns the list of methods that C can use to do its work. =cut BEGIN { no strict 'refs'; my @positions = qw(MAJOR MINOR POINT NAME BUILD KERNEL); use vars ( map { "_$_" } @positions ); foreach my $index ( 0 .. $#positions ) { my $name = $positions[$index]; *{"_$name" } = sub () { $index } } } { my %methods = map { $_, 1 } qw(uname gestalt sw_vers system_profiler default); sub version { my( $class, $method ) = @_; $method ||= 'default'; croak( "$class doesn't know about method [$method]" ) unless eval { $class->can( $method ) }; my @list = $class->$method; unless( wantarray ) { return join ".", @list[0,1,2] } return @list; } sub methods { () = keys %methods } } =item name( [METHOD] ) Returns the name of major version number, I 'Tiger' 10.4. C optionally specifies the method to use to get the answer. See C for the possible values. =item minor_to_name( MINOR ) Returns the name ( I 'Tiger' ) for the given minor version number. 0 Cheetah 1 Puma 2 Jaguar 3 Panther 4 Tiger 5 Leopard 6 Snow Leopard =item minor_version_numbers() Returns a list of the minor version numbers =item minor_version_names() Returns a list of the names of the minor versions ( I qw(Cheetah Puma ... ) =cut BEGIN { my @names = qw( Cheetah Puma Jaguar Panther Tiger Leopard ) ; push @names, 'Snow Leopard'; sub minor_to_name { $names[ $_[1] ] } sub minor_version_numbers { ( 0 .. $#names ) } sub minor_version_numbers { @names } } sub name { $_[0]->minor_to_name( ${ [ $_[0]->version( $_[1] ) ] }[_MINOR] ) } =item major( [METHOD] ) Returns the major version number, I 10 or 10.4.11.

Not all methods can return an answer. Here's a table of which methods return what values: default system_profiler sw_vers gestalt uname major x x x x minor x x x x point x x x x name x x x x build x x x kernel x x x =cut =over 4 =item default Uses several methods to collect information. =cut sub default { my $class = shift; my @list; if( wantarray ) { @list = $class->system_profiler } else { scalar $class->system_profiler } } =item gestalt Only uses C from C to get the major, minor, point, and name fields. This has the curious bug that the point release number will not be greater than 9. In scalar context, returns the version as "10.m.p". In list context, returns the same list as C, although some fields may be missing. =cut sub gestalt { my $class = shift; eval { require Mac::Gestalt }; croak "Need to install Mac:Gestalt to use 'gestalt' method" if $@; my @list; my $key = Mac::Gestalt::gestaltSystemVersion(); #print STDERR "key is $key\n"; my $version = sprintf "%x", $Mac::Gestalt::Gestalt{$key}; my @version = $version =~ m/^(\d+)(\d)(\d)$/g; #print STDERR "Got version [@version]\n"; @list[ _MAJOR, _MINOR, _POINT ] = @version; return join ".", @list[ _MAJOR, _MINOR, _POINT ] unless wantarray; $list[_NAME] = $class->minor_to_name( $list[_MINOR] ); @list; } =item sw_vers Only uses C to get the major, minor, point, build, and name fields.
