RuntimeRequirements Element
The RuntimeRequirements element is recommended and is used to control
which operating systems, platforms, releases, and languages the components
can be used with.
It is also used to define AutoCAD support paths that are required for
components in that Components section. You can specify as may sets of
components as needed. If not included, it is assumed that all components are
compatible with all AutoCAD and AutoCAD-based products, releases, and
operating systems.
NOTE Although this element is optional, it is possible that the plug-in might be
installed on Mac OS X or another system that the plug-in was not originally tested
on. Therefore, it is recommended that the element is used to control when the
plug-in can be loaded.
A RuntimeRequirements element can have any of the following attributes
attached to it:
DescriptionAttribute
Target operating system.OS
Supported values are Mac, Win32, or Win64. If

OS="Win32|Win64")
NOTE AutoLISP applications can be used across multiple
operating systems.
Target AutoCAD or AutoCAD-based products.Platform
Should be used when using APIs specific to one of the
AutoCAD-based products that might not available in
