  1. This is libsndfile, 1.0.25
  2. libsndfile is a library of C routines for reading and writing
  3. files containing sampled audio data.
  4. The src/ directory contains the source code for library itself.
  5. The doc/ directory contains the libsndfile documentation.
  6. The examples/ directory contains examples of how to write code using
  7. libsndfile.
  8. The tests/ directory contains programs which link against libsndfile
  9. and test its functionality.
  10. The src/GSM610 directory contains code written by Jutta Degener and Carsten
  11. Bormann. Their original code can be found at :
  12. http://kbs.cs.tu-berlin.de/~jutta/toast.html
  13. The src/G72x directory contains code written and released by Sun Microsystems
  14. under a suitably free license.
  15. The src/ALAC directory contains code written and released by Apple Inc and

  17. LINUX
  18. -----
  19. Whereever possible, you should use the packages supplied by your Linux
  20. distribution.
  21. If you really do need to compile from source it should be as easy as:
  22. ./configure
  23. make
  24. make install
  25. Since libsndfile optionally links against libFLAC, libogg and libvorbis, you
  26. will need to install appropriate versions of these libraries before running
  27. configure as above.
  28. UNIX
  29. ----
  30. Compile as for Linux.
  31. Win32/Win64
  32. -----------
  33. The default Windows compilers are nowhere near compliant with the 1999 ISO
  34. C Standard and hence not able to compile libsndfile.
  35. Please use the libsndfile binaries available on the libsndfile web site.
  36. MacOSX
  37. ------
  38. Building on MacOSX should be the same as building it on any other Unix.
