All,
I am using a Windows 7 x64 machine with VS 2010 with both x86 and x64
compile tools. When I try to build gdal for x64 using the make file
from the Win64 command prompt and WIN64 = YES in the nmake.opt file
everything compiles fine. (using gdal 181 by the way). If I try to
compile it for x86 using the Win86 command prompt and comment out
WIN64 in nmake.opt file I always get a linker error where the compiler
complains that the target machine doesn't match. I haven't tried this
on my Linux box but now I'm wondering if I am going to have the same
issue there as well.
My question is: Why can't I compile gdal for x86 on my x64 box? Am I
missing something stupid? Do you think it's my environment? Is it
supposed to work? Has anyone else tried to do this? I think I've
done this before with other versions but maybe I am mistaken.
I do build 32 & 64 on my machine that is also Win7 64 and use VC10. You
probably did the same mistake I often do. Using the VS vcvarsall.bat for
32 and trying to build the GDAL64 or vice versa.
On another note. It would be awesome to have gdal use cmake. Just a
thought.
There are people currently putting that thought to practice.
