**********************************************************************
 

This file gives an incomplete list of the platforms (OS type and version)
used by participants of the MPEG4 Audio VM software developement.

This list is intended as an aid in resolving compile/link problems.

Please feel free to add further details, comments, etc. to this list!

Unfortunately Linux 2.0 uses a new library/binary format ("ELF") which is
different from the format used in Linux 1.x. Therefore, only parts of the
VM currently can be linked on a Linux system.


Available libraries vs. platforms (14-feb-97)
---------------------------------------------

			SunOS	IRIX	Linux	Solaris
			4.1.x	5.x	2.0	2.x

common:
  libtsp.a		OK	OK	OK	OK

decoder:

encoder:
  libHVXC.a		OK	OK	OK	n/a
  libLPC_pan.a		OK	OK	OK	n/a
  libVQenc.a		OK	OK	OK	n/a
  libenc_tf_uer.a	OK	OK	OK	OK
  libuhd_psy.a		OK	OK	OK	OK
  libgain_son_NBCpp.a	OK	OK	OK	n/a
  libpqf_son_NBCpp.a	OK	OK	OK	n/a

Notes:	OK  = library OK and up to date
	old = library incompatible with current VM source code
	n/a = not available

	1.x in the Linux column indicates a Linux 1.x library
	(incompatible with Linux 2.0 "ELF" libraries)
