It doesn't.
At least modifying the primary platform with --with-boinc-platform= doesn't
work (in 7.0.27), and given the logic in detect_platforms() in
client/cs_platforms.cpp the same should be true for alternative platforms on
Linux etc.:
if (support64) {
add_platform("x86_64-pc-linux-gnu");
}
if (support32) {
add_platform("i686-pc-linux-gnu");
}
if (!(support64 || support32)) {
// Something went wrong. Assume HOSTTYPE and HOSTTYPEALT
// are correct
add_platform(HOSTTYPE);
#ifdef HOSTTYPEALT
add_platform(HOSTTYPEALT);
#endif
}
Could this please be fixed such that when boinc is configured for a certain
platform name, this platform name is used as the primary platform, and
likewise for an alternative platform name?
Best,
Bernd
