Webots User Guide


4.1 Introduction

Webots can execute controllers written in compiled (C/C++, Java) or interpreted (Python, MATLABTM) languages. The compilation or interpretation process requires extra software that must usually be installed separately. Only when using C/C++ on the Windows platform it is not necessary to install a separate C/C++ compiler; on this platform Webots comes with a pre-installed and preconfigured copy of the MinGW C/C++ compiler. For any other language or platform the software development tools must be installed separately. Note that Webots uses very standard tools that may already be present in a standard installation. Otherwise the instructions in this chapter will advise you about the installation of your software development tools.
