  4. System requirements
  5. -------------------
  6. OpenADK is designed to run on Linux systems. But there is basic
  7. support to run on MacOS X, Windows with Cygwin, OpenBSD, MirBSD,
  8. NetBSD and FreeBSD. Main development happens on Debian/GNU Linux
  9. and MacOS X. The other host platforms are occasionally tested.
  10. OpenADK detects the host system and displays only the software
  11. packages, which are known to be cross-compilable on the used host.
  12. For example OpenJDK7 is only cross-compilable on a Linux host.
  13. OpenADK needs some software to be already installed on the host
  14. system; here is the list of the mandatory packages,
  15. package names may vary between host systems.
  16. * Build tools:
  17. ** +binutils+
  18. ** +C compiler (gcc or clang)+
  19. ** `C++ compiler (g++ or clang++)`
  20. ** +make+
  21. ** +gzip+
  22. ** +perl+
  23. ** +tar+
  24. ** +curl or wget+
  25. ** +ncurses development files+
  26. ** +libc development files+
  27. There is a check for the required versions of these tools in advance,
  28. though.
  29. For some packages there are some optional packages required. OpenADK
  30. will check for the required tools in advance, when a specific package is
  31. choosen. For example Kodi needs Java installed on the host system.
  32. OpenADK tries to avoid any optional required host tools and will try to
  33. build them when needed.
