The build target configurations can belong to multiple classes with their names reflecting some common configuration aspects, such as the operating system, compiler, build options, etc. Predefined class names are \c{default}, -\c{all}, \c{none}, \c{host}, and \c{build2}. The default target configurations -are built by default. A configuration must also belong to the \c{all} unless -it is hidden. A configuration that is self-hosted must also belong to the -\c{host} class and, if it is also self-hosted for build system modules, to the -\c{build2} class. Valid custom class names must contain only alpha-numeric -characters, \c{_}, \c{+}, \c{-}, and \c{.}, except as the first character for -the last three.
