### On Windows:
Dependencies: MSVC 2013 or later, CMake 2.8.6 or later, and Boost 1.53 or later (except 1.54, [more details here](http://goo.gl/RrCFmA)).
Dependencies: mingw-w64, msys2, CMake 2.8.6 or later, and Boost 1.53 or 1.55 (except 1.54, [more details here](http://goo.gl/RrCFmA), and 1.56 as it causes an internal compiler error on mingw-w64).
* To build, change to the root of the source code directory, and run these commands:
**Preparing the Build Environment**
* Download the [MSYS2 installer](http://msys2.github.io), 64-bit or 32-bit as needed, and run it.
* Use the shortcut associated with your architecture to launch the MSYS2 environment. On 64-bit systems that would be the MinGW-w64 Win64 Shell shortcut. Note that if you are running 64-bit Windows, you will have both 64-bit and 32-bit environments.
* Update the packages in your MSYS2 install:
```
pacman -Sy
pacman -Su --ignoregroup base
pacman -Su
```
* For those of you already familiar with pacman, you can run the normal `pacman -Syu` to update, but you may get errors and need to restart MSYS2 if pacman's dependencies are updated.
* Install dependencies: `pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-gcc make mingw-w64-x86_64-cmake` (note: in future, once the boost 1.56 mingw-w64 issues are fixed, you can add `mingw-w64-x86_64-boost` to that list to have it installed as well)
* Download the [boost 1.55 msys2 package](http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/msys2/REPOS/MINGW/x86_64/mingw-w64-x86_64-boost-1.55.0-7-any.pkg.tar.xz), and install it by running `pacman -U mingw-w64-x86_64-boost-1.55.0-7-any.pkg.tar.xz`
**Building*
* From the root of the source code directory run:
```
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 Win64" -DBOOST_ROOT="c:\folder\to\boost_1_55_0" -DBOOST_LIBRARYDIR="c:\folder\to\boost_1_55_0\lib64-msvc-12.0"
msbuild Project.sln /p:Configuration=Release
```
* If you don't have your path environment variable configured with the VS paths, you may may want to run `C:\program files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat` (or equivalent) to temporarily set the environment variables.
* If you are on a 64-bit system, run:
```
cmake -G "MSYS Makefiles" -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -D CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../cmake/64-bit-toolchain.cmake -D MSYS2_FOLDER=c:/msys64 ..
```
* If you are on a 32-bit system, run:
```
cmake -G "MSYS Makefiles" -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -D CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=../cmake/32-bit-toolchain.cmake -D MSYS2_FOLDER=c:/msys32 ..
```
* You can now run `make` to have it build
If you installed MSYS2 in a folder other than c:/msys64, make the appropriate substitution above.
### On FreeBSD:
