Info Package for 64 bit compiler for Windows
Hi,
for compile new beta version with 64 bit exstension for Windows,how package download?
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/
or
http://mingw-w64.org/doku.php/download
or
another Package?
Thanks a lot.

Stick with 32-bit for now. I don't have everything working in 64-bit yet.

Re: Info Package for 64 bit compiler for Windows
What are the goals of a 64 bit versus 32 bit options? I see some mention of it in the latest reversions and just curious of what we are hoping to gain. I know that sounds like I am trying to say it is pointless, but my framing of the question comes completely out of ignorance. I love hearing about goals for the project and where it is going and just unsure about this move.

It's mainly for Linux. It might turn out to be faster than 32-bit, in which case I'll release a 64-bit Windows binary, but otherwise it's of no interest for Windows users.
Re: Info Package for 64 bit compiler for Windows
I don't get this. Every single developer of anything I seem to read, seems to think Linux should move forward with technology, while Windows should remain stuck in its 32-bit past. The sheer number of programs that have 64-bit builds for Linux and/or OS X but not for Windows makes one wonder.TomWalker wrote:It's mainly for Linux.

Yes, a big 7Z package from http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/ is enough for building PCem 64-bit Windows version.
One more thing you need is OpenAL SDK.
the mingw64 version that I use is this
http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w ... win32/seh/

Re: Info Package for 64 bit compiler for Windows
There's basically no advantage for most applications in running 64-bit; in fact due to the increased pointer size 64-bit applications are often slightly slower. PCem in interpreter mode is no faster built as 64-bit than 32-bit, so I haven't bothered making it available so far. The recompiler may end up being faster on 64-bit due to the additional registers in x86-64, but unless it is then what's the point in providing 64-bit binaries?Battler wrote:I don't get this.

On Linux as I've always understood it building for the native architecture is preferable as it avoids using cross compilers and having to use compatibility libraries. Hence why I'm porting the recompiler for that platform. The Windows 64-bit compiler simply exists as it's easier to do development natively than in a VM.

I remember when Windows 95 was released, 32-bit ports of Win16 appliations started popping up like mushrooms and in a few years, Win16 was a thing of the past. However, I've yet such a transition from Win32 to Win64.

Re: Info Package for 64 bit compiler for Windows
For most applications, the advantages of moving from Win16 to Win32 were much bigger than moving from Win32 to Win64. Win16 is awful.

i have download e mingw64, i have add in the patch c:\minigw\bin; i have try too a 32 bit version, but when compile pcem the system report me this error:
Makefile.mingw:41: recipe for target 'cdrom-ioctl.o' failed mingw32-make: *** [cdrom-ioctl.o] Error 1
Thanks By.
