FastFlow core is a header-only library and it is likely to work on any platform with a good c++ compiler. c++11 is required to use all FastFlow features. Core patterns does not requires c++11. Main development platform is Linux/x86_64/gcc. |

- | The support for Windows (32 and 64 bit) is available as beta in FastFlow 1.0.9 at revision 31 of Souceforge svn; it will be released with FastFlow 1.1. cc-NUMA platforms are supported (although optimization of the runtime for these platform is currently ongoing). | ||
