# Software Requirements
|
|
|
|
**Note:** If using the official Windows packages, no additional software is required.
|
|
|
|
## Supported Operating Systems
|
|
* Linux
|
|
* Windows (Vista SP2 or later)
|
|
* **Note:** The Windows port uses `pd0`, (`pd1`, ...) devices
|
|
for physical drives 0, (1, ...).
|
|
* FreeBSD
|
|
* NetBSD
|
|
* OpenBSD
|
|
* DragonFlyBSD
|
|
* macOS
|
|
* Solaris
|
|
* QNX (code written but no testing has been performed yet).
|
|
|
|
## Build Requirements
|
|
**Note:** These are required only if you're building GSmartControl from source code.
|
|
* [GTK+ 3](https://www.gtk.org) library, version 3.4 or higher.
|
|
* [Gtkmm](https://www.gtkmm.org) library, version 3.4 or higher.
|
|
* C++20 Compiler (GCC 11 or later, Clang/libc++ 17 or later, Apple Clang 15 or later)
|
|
* [CMake](https://cmake.org), version 3.14 or higher.
|
|
|
|
### Building from Source
|
|
1. Install the dependencies using your package manager.
|
|
2. Clone or extract GSmartControl source code. We assume the directory is named `gsmartcontrol`.
|
|
3. Build GSmartControl using the following commands:
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd gsmartcontrol
|
|
mkdir build
|
|
cd build
|
|
cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
|
|
make
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Runtime Requirements
|
|
**Note:** The Windows packages already include all the required software.
|
|
* [Smartmontools](https://www.smartmontools.org/). Windows users have an option to
|
|
install a separate version of smartmontools on their systems, and GSmartControl will automatically use it.
|
|
* xterm (optional, needed to run `update-smart-drivedb` on Linux / Unix systems).
