How the PIL was built for Windows platforms
-------------------------------------------

This section describes how RTI built the Platform Independent Library (PIL)
for Windows platforms.

The following table shows the compiler flags RTI used to create
the PIL for Windows platforms:

.. warning::

  The |rti_me| platform independent libraries are built without the standard C
  header-files. However, |me| makes one direct call to
  the C library API ``qsort``. In addition, MSVS may insert direct calls
  to C library functions and other required functions, such as default C++
  constructors and destructors. For this reason it is necessary to use an
  MSVS version that is compatible with the MSVS version used to build the
  platform independent libraries, or provide a C library with an implementation
  of the required functions. Future versions of |rti_me| will remove these
  dependencies.

Building the PSL from source for Windows platforms
--------------------------------------------------

Refer to :ref:`psl_compiling` for instructions on how to build your own
Platform Support Library (PSL) for Windows platforms.

The following table shows the compiler flags and required options that RTI
used to build the PSL for Windows platforms. When you build the PSL with
``rtime-make``, the ``--target`` argument automatically adds all the necessary
flags for the specified architecture.
