Compile VB.NET for AMD64

Hello,

I would like to know if it is (or will) be possible to compile a VB.NET
project for AMD64.
Actually, I can only see informations to compile a C++ (.NET) project
for AMD64, but I can't see anything about VB.NET (or C#).

I have also seen the it is possible to compile a C++ (Version 6) project
for AMD64. Is there the same for VB6?
In fact, I will soon begin a new project, and as there are a lot of
calculations in my program, I have been told that It could be
interesting to have support for AMD 64 for these parts. So, I would like
to know in wich language I should begin. Can you please point me to some
informations about all that?

Thank you

AllComp,

This version of VBNet (and VSNet) is only optimized for 32Bits.

In addition, different than in past usuall for most program languages, will
the Integer in VBNET in future not be optimized for the processor that using
the programs and needs hard coding (or replacing) of the Integer to Int64
and by next versions than again to Int128.

I hope this helps something,

Currently no, but there will be a 64-bit version of the .NET Framework
available in near future and VS 2005 will support 64-bit systems as a
target.

No, VB6 applications will always remain 32-bit.

Hi guys, We have a problem with Dual AMD64 Opteron/MySQL 4.0.18/Mandrake 10 for a very high volume site. We are evaluating the performance on our new server AMD64 and it seems it's slow compared to Dual Xeon/MySQL 4.0.15/RedHat8 and Dual Xeon/MySQL 4.0.18/Mandrake 10. And it seems there are zombie threads. 570 threads in 1 hour and we didn't even use JDBC connection pooling at all. These threads are supposed to be gone within 60...

Hi, I don't understand why DELL is unwilling to sell AMD64 products. Steve Felice, VP @ DELl says their is no customers demand for AMD64. Suck to be Steve. From various Linux flavors to BSD, the OS rocks on AMD64 macs. I have seen conformance test suite benhcmarks which are better on AMD64 than on f**ing Itanium. I feel this is a ridiculous policy @ DELL not to sell AMD products. Anyone in FTC listening ?

Hi, Does anyone know of an available downloader for an amd64 bit build of (a modern) python? I've done my due diligence search of python docs and mailing archives, and I'm somewhat mystified by the lack of info on this topic.

Hi, I have been using MySQLdb on a 32-bit processor, no worries. Love it. I went to install on an AMD64 running the 64-bit version of SUSE 10.0. I get the following error during the "python setup.py build" gcc -pthread -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG -O2 -fmessage-length=0 -Wall -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -g -fPIC -I/usr/include/mysql

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 ?

Does anyone know if it's possible to run python as a 32 bit app on AMD64's? One of our host providers AMD Athlon 64 3000+ and we are currently using a celeron which is real slow. The problem is that this machine would be a backup for another which is 32 pentium 4. If I have to recompile/debug all the extensions etc etc for another architecture it might not seem so attractive. -not ready for 64bitly yrs- Robin Becker

Hi all I have a tricky situation that's preventing my Python/SWIG/C application from running on the Debian Etch AMD64 platform. It seems that the 'dl' module is not available on that platform. The only reason I need the 'dl' module, however, is for the values of RTLD_LAZY etc, which I use with sys.setdlopenflags() in order to make my imported SWIG module share its symbols correctly with more deeply- nested plugin modiles in my C-code...
