Build Tools
Windows
The majority of the Synchronet executable files and libraries for Windows are built with Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Express (free).
Certain GUI components (e.g. Synchronet Control Panel) are built with Borland C++Builder 6, with efforts under way to transition to Embarcadero Technologies C++Builder 2010 (not free).
UNIX
GNU C/C++ (gcc) is officially supported on Unix/Linux platforms, while other compilers (e.g Intel C Compiler) may be used by experienced programmers.
