Is there any "how to"? IIRC you have to edit linux.mak to use -m64 instead of -m32. It has worked in the past, but the 64 bit build is not regularly tested. When I tried this last week, changing -m32 to -m64 got me a clean 64-bit build of dmd2, with no build errors. Very easy. A caveat-- I tried the same search and replace s/32/64/ in places on the druntime and phobos makefiles, but there was something more subtle going on--the generated libraries built fine but were still 32-bit objects inside the .a archives. Somehow I wasn't passing the right flags to generate 64-bit libraries. Is there a flag to tell dmd to compile to 64-bit objects? Thanks, Jason
since 2.052 the -m64 flag should be supported to compile 64bit binaries (on Linux).
