MsAccess and IA64

Is there any way to update an access database on an Itanium
machine(IA64)? I noticed that there is no 64 bit Jet Driver available
from Microsoft :
'Microsoft.Jet. OLEDB.4.0' provider is not registered on the local
machine

I am thinking there might be a way to install a 32 bit version of the
drivers utilizing WOW and create an x86 assembly that does this.
Before I dive in can anyone see an issue with this or has anyone got a
workaround?

Thanks,
Brian

Firstly, you are right that there is no 64-bit version of the Jet OLEDB
driver - in fact, Jet is now completely deprecated:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...components.asp

This means, AFAIK, that a 64-bit app is not going to be able to work
natively with Jet databases.

I have a similar situation with a current project where I'm upgrading an old
VB6 app to C# v2. Forcing it to compile to a 32-bit app works perfectly - no
additional drivers or whatever need to be installed.

I haven't tried to create a separate x86 assembly to do the Jet stuff, but I
imagine that this would be OK...

Hi all, I don't know what I'm missing here, but if anyone could help me out I'd really appreciate it. Basically, everything is fine, compiles, installs, server runs, but the interactive mysql client breaks. I have an IA64 Red Hat Linux Enterprise Edition system and I tried to install the binaries recommended on MySQL. However, when I run the mysql client, I get simply:

I've got a .BAT file that I use for executing various MS Access apps that I wrote way back in the days of 2.0. It's evolved over time, but it still contains a number of possible paths to MSACCESS.EXE, tries them all, takes the first one it finds, and dies if none is found. Seems to me like at some time or another I was able to clone this .BAT file and implement it with no path. Something about MSACCESS being a registered application.

Hi, I've been attempting to use StackWalk64 on IA64. Unfortunately, the Microsoft docs seem to be rather vague as to what is required. My test program works on the I386, but won't not on the IA64. On the IA64 the StackWalk64 returns true, so the call thinks it succeeded. But the resulting StackFrame64 does not have correct data, and further calls to StackWalk64 return false. Has anybody gotten this to work that might be able to provide me...

Has anyone successfully built 7.3.4, 7.4.3, or 8.0.0beta1 on IA64 with HP-UX 11i v2 (11.23)? I'm not having any success, running into 'make' failures. Googling old posts suggests this might be due to missing test-and-set code for ia64? I saw a disputed/repudiated ViSolve patch, but nothing else. Is this still broken? Here's my attempt on 8.0.0beta1: $uname -a

I've installed both 32-bit and 64-bit executables of 7.4.5 on ia64 running HP-UX B.11.23. The 32-bit version works fine and accepts both local and remote connections. The 64-bit version, however, rejects any/all attempts to connect with the following message: FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for host "???", user "dba", database "template1" These are using identical pg_hba.conf files. Any clues?

Hi there, I am porting a project to IA64, AMD64(X64) with VS2005 Professional Edition on a 32bit box. The version of VS2005(32bit) I used is 8.0.50727.42. However, I just found that only x64 cross-compiler is offered with VS2005 and there is no AMD64 cross-compiler! I wonder if IA64 cross-compiler is available now and how can I get it ? If I need to install special service pack or SDK ?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
