You need a C++ compiler to compile and use YAZ++.
- The software was implemented using GCC so we know that works
- well with YAZ++. From time to time the software has been
- compiled on Windows using Visual C++. Other compilers should
- work too. Let us know of portability problems, etc. with
- your system.

YAZ++ is built on top of the
- <ulink url="http://indexdata.dk/yaz/">YAZ</ulink>
+ <ulink url="&url.yaz;">YAZ</ulink>
toolkit.
You need to install that first.
For some platforms there are binary packages for YAZ.
