Platform<ToolKit> for UNIX Benefits

Platform<ToolKit> for UNIX provides the following benefits.

Consistency - Because Platform<ToolKit> provides a clean C++ interface to UNIX systems calls, direct systems calls are almost unnecessary. Instead, all of your code uses objects and has a clean and consistent structure. Also, all systems call errors are automatically converted to C++ exceptions, necessitating only one consistent error mechanism throughout your code.
Complete coverage - When used in conjunction with the other libraries in the C++ Component Series, Platform<ToolKit> for UNIX provides complete coverage of most of the UNIX systems call interfaces using a consistent C++ API.
