LINUX

-----

Whereever possible, you should use the packages supplied by your Linux

distribution.

If you really do need to compile from source it should be as easy as:

		./configure

		make

		make install

Since libsndfile optionally links against libFLAC, libogg and libvorbis, you

will need to install appropriate versions of these libraries before running

configure as above.

UNIX

----

Compile as for Linux.

Win32/Win64

-----------

The default Windows compilers are nowhere near compliant with the 1999 ISO

C Standard and hence not able to compile libsndfile.

Please use the libsndfile binaries available on the libsndfile web site.

MacOSX

------

Building on MacOSX should be the same as building it on any other Unix.
