From 2a4611e19ffc4fd36f63114284bef521973f709a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: abv <abv@opencascade.com> Date: Thu, 2 Feb 2017 16:00:28 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] 0028371: Configuration - update system requirements page Table of supported operating systems with versions is removed, in favor of more general statement with simple list of supported OS and architectures. Outdated list of tested graphic cards has been dropped. --- dox/overview/overview.md | 34 ++++++++++------------------------ 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 24 deletions(-) diff --git a/dox/overview/overview.md b/dox/overview/overview.md index a6cb88379e..e11713971b 100644 --- a/dox/overview/overview.md +++ b/dox/overview/overview.md @@ -175,23 +175,14 @@ Run this command without arguments to get help on supported options. @section OCCT_OVW_SECTION_5 Requirements Open CASCADE Technology is designed to be highly portable and is known to -work on wide range of platforms (UNIX, Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, Android). +work on wide range of platforms.
