GCC on 64 bit archs

[Jordan Greenberg]

What should you do differently if you are using GCC to compile some c++
code for, say, an Athlon64? is it basically the same as compiling on a
32 bit processor?

Thanks!

The com.lang.c++ newsgroup is a good place to get bad advive
about any particular compiler of any particular platform.

Try the gnu.g++.help newsgroup instead.

You should ask in a gcc group, not here. The operation of compilers
and other tools is a compiler-specific issue, not a language one.
