Re[2]: 64-bit windows version?
Hello Peter, Monday, June 25, 2007, 9:35:31 PM, you wrote: Maybe some gcc mimicing cl wrapper tailored specifically for GHC building system could help? One more layer of indirection, but could leave ghc driver relatively intact. That's a good idea! there is possibility that such driver was already implemented somewhere i remember old good says when symantec c++ contained such drivers for emulation of CL and BCC :) -- Best regards, Bulatmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
Re[2]: 64-bit windows version?
Hello Simon, Wednesday, June 20, 2007, 11:51:34 AM, you wrote: really! Simon, how about unregisterised build? Unregisterised would still need a C compiler capable of generating 64-bit code. Are you talking about using the MS compiler for that? Certainly possible, but I'm not sure why you'd want to do it - you'd end up with much slower code than running the 32-bit compiler. in *my* program all code that is need to be efficient is written in C++ :) generally speaking, people want to use 64-bit code in order to work with much larger data space, overall speed may be better than using 32-bit version with 2gb limit so, if it is a not big problem - afaiu unregisterized build should be easy? - can you please build such version? -- Best regards, Bulatmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users

Visual Studio Express is a Visual Studio 2005 IDE system for XP with some features disabled, the disabled features include interactive debugging, help, online news/blog stuff, etc: advanced IDE features. AFAIK the compilers are intact and can be used on the command line as well as from the IDE. I think you do need to download the platform SDK separately though. AFAIK on x86_64 platform, VS is a 32 bit program, as are the compilers, but they can generate 64 bit code (the 32 and 64 bit compilers are separate executables and run in distinct environments .. ) One thing to watch though: embedded assembler is gone in new MSVC++ compilers (due to multi-arch support I guess). However assembler works in 64 bit, Ocaml 64 bit for Windows uses it. -- John Skaller skaller at users dot sf dot net Felix, successor to C++: http://felix.sf.net ___ Glasgow-haskell-users mailing list Glasgow-haskell-users@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/glasgow-haskell-users
