Compiling for x64 Windows

Postby Vegan » 02 Aug 2008, 02:23

I have native 64-bit compilers for Windows and can compile C++ for console projects using my Microsoft compiler. This assume the code is well written and not using any of a range of components that need tweaking to run faster.

For some reason, EGTB.CPP will not compile with the newest compiler but I have the old one that will compile it.

Yes, you should and it is as easy as changing the project build type to 64bit. If this is native code that is. For .NET code

things are different because it supports "agnostic" which is clever and means that an assembly will operate as 32-bit OR 64-bit depending

upon the platform it runs on.

For native code rememebr that a) You may need to install 64-bit features of VS 2005 that are not installed by default and that you cannot debug native

64-bit code in an interop setting.
