| # Building libsndfile on Win32 | |
| **Note : For pre-compiled binaries for windows, both for win32 and win64, see | |
| the main web page.** | |
| There are currently two build systems; the official GNU autotool based one and | |
| a more limited and experimental CMake based build system. | |
| libsndfile is written to be compiled by a compiler which supports large chunks | |
| of the 1999 ISO C Standard (tested with GCC, Clang and Visual Studio 2015). | |
| It is recommended to use CMake and Visual Studio to build libsndfile on Windows | |
| but you can try the [MinGW](http://www.mingw.org/) compiler suite with Autotools | |
| or CMake buildsystem. |
