64 bit development tools
Hi
Does anyone know where I can get hold of the 64bit compiler and libraries for the AMD64. Unfortunately I don't have access to MSDN and for some strange reason microsoft is not making them downloadable. This seems a strange way to encourage people to port apps to 64 bit ? Paul |

Paul GCC fully supports the Opteron. Install one of the 64 bit Linux distributions and you'll get 64 bit compilers and libraries. Mandrake 9.2 is available in an AMD64 flavor as is SUSE 9.1. |

Surely you realise they'll want at least an arm and both legs for it? If you're one of the developers they actually care about then you'll already have MSDN. As for their year long "free trial" licenses for their beta AMD64 OSs. Well IMO, that's an attempt to prevent Linux getting too much of a lead on them. The fact is that AMD64 and Linux development have been going on pretty much together. Microsoft have seriously dropped the ball over this one and are now trying to catch up. As somemone interested in AMD64 development you might find the site www.amd64.org quite interesting. -- Ian. EOM |

Paul Order the 2003 DDK from Microsoft. It's free but there's a s/h charge of $15 in my case. Everything you need is in the DDK. |
