What computing platforms is the DIRSIG software available for?

By Scott D. Brown - Posted on 05 September 2008

The DIRSIG software is supported on the major UNIX/Linux platforms and the Mac OSX platform (another UNIX-based operating system). Below is the list of platforms that release builds are created for:
- Sun Microsystems Solaris 9/10 on UltraSparc processors
- Linux 2.4 kernel distribustions on 32-bit Intel/AMD processors
- Linux 2.4 kernel distribustions on 64-bit Intel/AMD processors
- Apple Mac OSX (Tiger and Leopard) on PowerPC/Intel (Universal)

Starting in the Fall of 2008, DIRSIG will also be supported on the Windows platform.

The user experience on all platforms is the same. The DIRSIG user interface is written using the Qt Developer API which allows us to create robust user interfaces with native look and feel from the same code base.
