24 LINUX
25 -----
26 Whereever possible, you should use the packages supplied by your Linux
27 distribution.
28
29 If you really do need to compile from source it should be as easy as:
30
31 ./configure
32 make
33 make install
34
35 Since libsndfile optionally links against libFLAC, libogg and libvorbis, you
36 will need to install appropriate versions of these libraries before running
37 configure as above.
38
39
40 UNIX
41 ----
42 Compile as for Linux.
43
44
45 Win32/Win64
46 -----------
47 The default Windows compilers are nowhere near compliant with the 1999 ISO
48 C Standard and hence not able to compile libsndfile.
49
50 Please use the libsndfile binaries available on the libsndfile web site.
51
52
53 MacOSX
54 ------
55 Building on MacOSX should be the same as building it on any other Unix.
