// This module contains the platform-specific code. This make the rest of the
// code less dependent on operating system, compilers and runtime libraries.
// This module does specifically not deal with differences between different
// processor architecture.
// The platform classes have the same definition for all platforms. The
// implementation for a particular platform is put in platform_<os>.cc.
// The build system then uses the implementation for the target platform.
//
// This design has been chosen because it is simple and fast. Alternatively,
// the platform dependent classes could have been implemented using abstract
// superclasses with virtual methods and having specializations for each
// platform. This design was rejected because it was more complicated and
// slower. It would require factory methods for selecting the right
// implementation and the overhead of virtual methods for performance
// sensitive like mutex locking/unlocking.
