23 There is currently only one way of building libsndfile for Win32 and Win64;
24 cross compiling from Linux using the MinGW cross compiler.

28 libsndfile is written to be compiled by a compiler which supports large
29 chunks of the 1999 ISO C Standard.
30 Unfortunately, the microsoft compiler supports close to nothing of this
31 standard and hence is not suitable for libsndfile.

35 It <b>may</b> be possible to compile libsndfile on windows using the
36 <a href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW</a>
37 compiler suite, but I haven't tested that and have no interest in supporting
38 that.
