Irrelevant. There is no win64, but there could be. Linux and most Unicies use 64ILP architecture, where ints, longs and *'s are all 64 bits. The "64 bit Win32 API" eg win32-x64 reflects Windows' choice to use 64P architecture; 32 bit windows ints and longs, with 64 bit pointers (e.g. including handles, etc). Do not start notating win64 until it exists; it certainly could in the future; MS could begin shipping a 64 ILP OS. Until then, this is the same API as post-windows 3.x. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
