You need a C++ compiler to compile and use YAZ proxy.
- The software was implemented using GCC so we know that works
+ The software was implemented using
+ <ulink url="http://gcc.gnu.org/">GCC</ulink> so we know that works
well with YAZ proxy. 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
<ulink url="http://indexdata.dk/yazplusplus/">YAZ++</ulink>
toolkits.
You need to install these first.
- For some platforms there are binary packages for YAZ/YAZ++.

We also highly recommend that
<ulink url="http://xmlsoft.org/">libxml2</ulink> and
<ulink url="http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/">libXSLT</ulink> are installed.
YAZ must be configured with libxml2 support.
- If not, SRW/SRU is not supported.
+ If not,

The YAZ Proxy uses libXSLT for record conversions via XSLT.
