    Supported Operation Systems are:

    - Debian GNU/Linux (Tested with version 2.6.18) 
    - Windows 2000/XP

    How to compile MAD-FCL in Linux:

    The MAD-FCL archive contains a Makefile to compile the MAD-ALCLIB, the
    MAD-FLUTELIB and the MAD-SDPLIB libraries, and the MAD-FLUTE and
    MAD-FLUTE-UNITTEST applications. Please note that the Makefile is defined
    for the GNU make. 

    Only write (g)make in the top directory, and all directories are scanned
    through and the MAD-ALCLIB, the MAD-FLUTELIB and the MAD-SDPLIB libraries,
    and the MAD-FLUTE and MAD-FLUTE-UNITTEST applications are compiled.

    The MAD-ALCLIB, the MAD-FLUTELIB and the MAD-SDPLIB libraries are created to
    the lib directory, and the MAD-FLUTE and MAD-FLUTE-UNITTEST applications are
    created to the bin directory.
	
    There are own makefiles for MAD-FLUTE-REPAIR-SERVER and MAD-REPAIR-SENDER
    applications in corresponding directories. 
	
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    How to compile MAD-FCL in Windows:

    The MAD-FCL archive contains a Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 solution file
    (mad_fcl.sln) to compile the MAD-ALCLIB, the MAD-FLUTELIB and the
    MAD-SDPLIB libraries, and the MAD-FLUTE, MAD-FLUTE-UNITTEST and
    MAD-REPAIR-SENDER applications. 

    First start the Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 and open the MAD-FCL solution,
    and then use Build menu to create the MAD-ALCLIB, the MAD-FLUTELIB and the
    MAD-SDPLIB libraries, and the MAD-FLUTE, MAD-FLUTE-UNITTEST and
    MAD-REPAIR-SENDER applications. Note that you have to define paths to the
    external libraries by yourself.

    The MAD-ALCLIB, the MAD-FLUTELIB and the MAD-SDPLIB libraries are created
    to the lib\win32\debug or lib\win32\release directory, and the MAD-FLUTE,
    MAD-FLUTE-UNITTEST and MAD-REPAIR-SENDER applications are created to the
    bin\win32\debug or bin\win32\release directory depending on the used
    configuration.
