Hi,

We have one 64bit setup in our company. It was not used for few months, but
in the summer we we built couple osg releases using it. In that time, it was
just a matter of selecting target 64 bit VS environment, when Cmake was run
for the very first time in OSG directory. This selection is also available
as a result of Cmake "clear cache" command.  Clearing cache will bring
target selection dialog again. Look carefully - you should be able to find
64 bit VS 2005 target. Maybe new cmake has 64 bit 2008 as well

We ended up using VS 2005 Standard for 64 bit. VS 2005 Express does not
offer 64 bit builds out of the box. Cmake won't also generate 64bit solution
for VS 2005 Express. 64 bit in VS Express is theoretically possible with
some hacking using Platform SDK compiler. But I attempted this path and give
up due to some strange issues with compilation of stl and some predefined
macros. Apparently Sdk compiler has to use Platform SDK headers and libs. It
did not work well with Stl from VS 2005 express. So we ended up buing the
cheapest commercial VS relases that alllowed to do this.

Cheers,
Wojtek Lewandowski

  Hi

  Ok possibly stupid question, we have tasked one of our engineers to start
the process of finally upgrading to OSG 2.3.x from 1.2. One of the things we
do need is both is 32bit and x64 on windows, the Gent we have getting things
upto speed cannot seem to find any thing to do 64 bit builds in the Cmake
configs etc. ( Cmake is all new to him and I'm about the same )

  I'm sort of asking this question blind as I'm not in a position to check
things ( sorry), so as said possibly dumb/stupid question,

  But what do we need to do to get Cmake etc to throw out 64bit solutions
for windozes as well as 32bit



  thanks

  G.
