Hi Michael,

My understanding is that this should work.
According to section "D.4.2 64-bit toolchain" of the "R Installation
and Administration" manual:

  The toolchain we use is technically a cross-compiler: the tools run
  under 32-bit Windows but produce code to run under 64-bit Windows.

BTW, as reported here https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2010-June/057668.html
in June, the following links in the Table of Contents of this manual
are broken:

  3.1.10 64-bit Windows builds
  C.4.1 64-bit Leopard builds
  D.4.1 32-bit toolchain
  D.4.2 64-bit toolchain

Seems like only the sections with a title starting with a digit have
this problem.

Cheers,
H.

Hello,

Is it possible to build a 64-bit package on a 32-bit machine on
windows? I can cross-compile for x86, x86_64, and ppc on a 32-bit OS X
machine.  And it looks like I could build a 32-bit library on a 64-bit
windows machine.  But it doesn't look possible to build a 64-bit
library on a 32-bit windows machine?

Thanks,
--Michael
