Unfortunately, the microsoft compiler supports close to nothing of this standard and hence is not suitable for libsndfile. </P> <P> It <b>may</b> be possible to compile libsndfile on windows using the <a href="http://www.mingw.org/">MinGW</a> compiler suite, but I haven't tested that and have no interest in supporting that. </P> <!--===========================================================================--> <!-- pepper --> <!-- pepper --> <!-- pepper --> <BR> <!-- pepper --> <!-- pepper --> <!-- pepper --> <!-- pepper --> </BODY> </HTML>
