| |
| Building environment requirements |
| --------------------------------- |
| |
| * GNU Make or BSD make. |
| * A C99 compiler. Some platform-specific codes may use GNU C extensions; in |
| that case, GCC 3.3+ or a compatible C compiler will be required. |
| |
| Supported target platforms |
| -------------------------- |
| |
| ### Linux-based operating systems |
| |
| A minimal of **Linux 2.0** is required; while version 2.6 or later is |
| recommended. |
| |
| For **GNU/Linux**, **GNU C Library 2.0** and later versions are supported. |
| |
| For **uC/Linux**, only the **uClibc 0.9.33.2** is supported. |
| |
| For **Android/Linux**, **Android 4.0** and later versions are supported. |
| |
| Linux with other C library will likely work, but not tested. |
| |
| ### kFreeBSD-based operating systems |
| |
| A minimal of **kFreeBSD 5.0** is required. |
| |
| **FreeBSD 5** and later releases are supported. |
| |
| For **GNU/kFreeBSD**, only the **GNU C Library 2.13** is tested and therefore |
| supported. |
| |
| ### DragonFly BSD |
| |
| **DragonFly BSD 5.0** and later releases are supported. |
| |
| ### macOS (Mac OS X) |
| |
| **Mac OS X 10.4** and later releases are supported. |
| |
| ### OpenBSD |
| |
| **OpenBSD 5.0** and later releases are supported. |
| |
| ### Solaris |
| |
| **Solaris 9** and later releases are supported. |
| |
| Currently only tested with GCC, therefore building with Sun C compiler is not |
| supported. |
| |
| Other Solars-kernel-based operating systems such as **GNU/kOpenSolaris** are |
| currently not supported. |
| |
| ### GNU/Hurd |
| |
| Currently only tested with **GNU C Library 2.19**, **GNU HURD 0.5** and |
| **GNU Mach 1.4**. Although unsupported, it is expected to work with newer |
| versions of operating system components. |
| |
| ### AIX |
| |
| Currently only tested on **AIX 7.1**. Although unsupported, it is expected to |
| work on newer versions of the operating system. |
| |
| ### Cygwin |
| |
| Currently only tested on **Cygwin 1.7.18**. |
| |
| ### Interix |
| |
| Support is incomplete, many features won't work. |
| |
| **Interix 3.5** and later versions are supported. |
