<para>
In Nixpkgs, these three platforms are defined as attribute sets under the
names <literal>buildPlatform</literal>, <literal>hostPlatform</literal>, and
<literal>targetPlatform</literal>. They are always defined as attributes in
the standard environment. That means one can access them like:
names <literal>buildPlatform</literal>, <literal>hostPlatform</literal>,
and <literal>targetPlatform</literal>. They are always defined as
attributes in the standard environment. That means one can access them
like:
<programlisting>{ stdenv, fooDep, barDep, .. }: ...stdenv.buildPlatform...</programlisting>

<title>Debugging Nix Expressions</title>

<para>
Nix is a unityped, dynamic language, this means every value can potentially
appear anywhere. Since it is also non-strict, evaluation order and what
ultimately is evaluated might surprise you. Therefore it is important to be
able to debug nix expressions.

<para>
In the <literal>lib/debug.nix</literal> file you will find a number of
functions that help (pretty-)printing values while evaluation is runnnig.
You can even specify how deep these values should be printed recursively,
and transform them on the fly. Please consult the docstrings in
<literal>lib/debug.nix</literal> for usage information.
