# php_uname

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.2, PHP 5)

php_uname -- Returns information about the operating system PHP is running on

## Description

string php_uname ( [string mode] )

php_uname() returns a description of the operating system PHP is running on. For the name of just the operating system, consider using the `PHP_OS` constant, but be reminded this constant will contain the operating system PHP was built on.

On Unix, the output reverts to displaying the operating system information PHP was built on if it cannot determine the currently running OS.

mode is a single character that defines what information is returned:

- 'a': This is the default. Contains all modes in the sequence "s n r v m".

- 's': Operating system name. eg. FreeBSD.

- 'n': Host name. eg. localhost.example.com.

- 'r': Release name. eg. 5.1.2-RELEASE.

- 'v': Version information. Varies a lot between operating systems.

- 'm': Machine type. eg. i386.

Beispiel 1. Some php_uname() examples
`<?php echo php_uname(); echo PHP_OS; /* Some possible outputs: Linux localhost 2.4.21-0.13mdk #1 Fri Mar 14 15:08:06 EST 2003 i686 Linux FreeBSD localhost 3.2-RELEASE #15: Mon Dec 17 08:46:02 GMT 2001 FreeBSD Windows NT XN1 5.1 build 2600 WINNT */ if (strtoupper(substr(PHP_OS, 0, 3)) === 'WIN') { echo 'This is a server using Windows!'; } else { echo 'This is a server not using Windows!'; } ?>`

There are also some related Predefined PHP constants that may come in handy, for example:

Beispiel 2. A few OS related constant examples
`<?php // *nix echo DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR; // / echo PHP_SHLIB_SUFFIX; // so echo PATH_SEPARATOR; // : // Win* echo DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR; // \ echo PHP_SHLIB_SUFFIX; // dll echo PATH_SEPARATOR; // ; ?>`
