## Platforms

We do not recommend Windows for rippled production use at this time. Currently,
the Ubuntu platform has received the highest level of quality assurance,
testing, and support. Additionally, 32-bit Windows development is not supported.
rippled is written in the C++20 dialect and includes the `<concepts>` header.
The [minimum compiler versions][2] that can compile this dialect are given
below:

| Compiler | Minimum Version
|---|---
| GCC | 10
| Clang | 13
| Apple Clang | 13.1.6
| MSVC | 19.23

You'll need to compile in the C++20 dialect:

If you have multiple compilers installed on your platform,
then you'll need to make sure that Conan and CMake select the one you want to
use.
This setting will set the correct variables (`CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER`) in the
generated CMake toolchain file:

```
conan profile update 'conf.tools.build:compiler_executables={"c": "<path>", "cpp": "<path>"}' default
```

It should choose the compiler for dependencies as well,
but not all of them have a Conan recipe that respects this setting (yet).
For the rest, you can set these environment variables:

```
conan profile update env.CC=<path> default
conan profile update env.CXX=<path> default
```

#### Conan

If you find trouble building dependencies after changing Conan settings,
then you should retry after removing the Conan cache:

```
rm -rf ~/.conan/data
```


#### no std::result_of

If your compiler version is recent enough to have removed `std::result_of` as
part of C++20, e.g. Apple Clang 15.0,
then you might need to add a preprocessor definition to your bulid:

```
conan profile update 'env.CFLAGS="-DBOOST_ASIO_HAS_STD_INVOKE_RESULT"' default
conan profile update 'env.CXXFLAGS="-DBOOST_ASIO_HAS_STD_INVOKE_RESULT"' default
conan profile update 'tools.build:cflags+=["-DBOOST_ASIO_HAS_STD_INVOKE_RESULT"]' default

#### recompile with -fPIC

requires unsupported dynamic reloc 11; recompile with -fPIC
```

If you get a linker error like the one above suggesting that you recompile
Boost with position-independent code, the reason is most likely that Conan
downloaded a bad binary distribution of the dependency.
For now, this seems to be a [bug][1] in Conan just for Boost 1.77.0 compiled
with GCC for Linux.
The solution is to build the dependency locally by passing `--build boost`
when calling `conan install`.
when calling `conan install`:

You can pass every parameter to Conan on the command line,

You can let Conan create the default profile with this command:
