Method Details

getArchitecture

public TargetArchitecture getArchitecture()

Description copied from interface: Target

The Target Architecture for the output.

Specified by:

getArchitecture in interface Target

Returns:

One of the valid target architectures.

isSupported

public boolean isSupported()

Description copied from interface: Target

Is this target actually supported. While the developer may have specified a valid TargetArchitecture, the necessary components may not be available. So for example, if the developer had specified LLVM as the target output (and hence some form of binary as a result), it will be necessary for that developer to have llvm installed (at the right level) and to be accessible.

Specified by:

isSupported in interface Target

Returns:

true if supported and output can be generated, false otherwise.
