-For Windows Users:
 
-Visual C++ 6.0 project files are included for the test programs in the /tests/Windows/ directory.  These projects compile API support for both ASIO and DirectSound.  Version 4.0 of RtAudio was tested with the .net compiler and it will not compile in Visual C++ 6.0 because of its non-conformance to modern C++ standards.
+WINDOWS USERS:

+RtAudio compiles with the MinGW compiler or MS Visual Studio.

+LINUX OSS:
+
+The OSS API support in RtAudio has not been tested for many years.  I'm not even sure there are OSS drivers supporting recent linux kernels.  In all likelihood, the OSS API code in RtAudio will disappear within the next year or two (if you don't want this to happen, let me know).
