The LeechCore library and the LeechAgent binaries are built with Visual Studio 2019. Please ensure that the C/C++ development environment and the Visual Studio Python Tools are both installed.

LeechCore and LeechAgent supports both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 7 or later. Windows 10 is recommended for improved performance.

Note! Additional device plugin modules exists in the LeechCore-plugins repository. Plugins will build to .dll files which should be placed alongside leechcore.dll.

The LeechCore library is supported on x64 and arm64 Linux.

To build for Linux ensure the dependencies are met by running:
apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev pkg-config. Then move into the LeechCore/leechcore directory and execute: make. The resulting library leechcore.so will be placed in the LeechCore/files directory after a successful build.

LeechAgent is not supported on Linux.

Note! Additional device plugin modules exists in the LeechCore-plugins repository. The FT601 user-mode USB-driver also exists as a separate driver compiled to .so. Plugins will build to .so files which should be placed alongside leechcore.so.

The LeechCore library is supported on Apple silicon macOS.

To build for macOS execute in the leechcore directory: make -f Makefile.macos

LeechAgent is not supported on macOS.

Note! Additional device plugin modules exists in the LeechCore-plugins repository. The FT601 user-mode USB-driver also exists as a separate driver compiled to .dylib. Plugins will build to .dylib files which should be placed alongside leechcore.dylib.
