32-bit

I have a program built with VB6 and using some 32-bit DLL's . Will this program run on a 64-bit machine? This page suggests that it should run fine on the Windows on Windows layer, but what about the DLL's? Yes , both the VB 6 program and the DLLs will work just fine on a 64-bit version of Windows. Since both are 32-bit, they will run under the Windows-on-Windows 64 (WoW64) subsystem , which effectively emulates a 32-bit operating system on the 64-bit versions of Windows. I've run many such programs myself with nary a hitch. Beyond Explorer extensions and kernel mode drivers (neither of which

I am struggling to apply an existing 32bit COM addin to 64bit Microsoft Word 2010. To make the addin visible to Word, I have used the dllsurrogate-method, as it described here . The problem is that now addin caused some strange exception when tries to add its toolbar and menu to office's. I cannot figure out, what it is, it seems, that the command bar reference became not valid in unpredicable moments. Can anyone explain this? Note, that everething is fine when I use the same addin under 32bit Microsoft Word 2010 and more old versions of Ms Office. 32-bit add-ins are not supported on 64-bit.

According to Apple's gcc 4.2.1 doc : -arch arch Compile for the specified target architecture arch. The allowable values are 'i386', 'x86_64', 'ppc' and 'ppc64'. Multiple options work, and direct the compiler to produce “universal” binaries including object code for each architecture specified with -arch. This option only works if assembler and libraries are available for each architecture specified. (APPLE ONLY) So what's the difference between these two calls: gcc -arch i386 program.c and gcc -m32 program.c Is it just that -arch is more powerful as it's more flexible and can produce

Java 7 on 32-bit Windows 7 - Java Webstart - Unable to load resource I can't launch any java webstart application on a 32-bit Windows 7 system. E.g. ArgoUML - http://argouml-downloads.tigris.org/jws/argouml-latest-stable.jnlp Everything works fine with Java 6, but with Java 7 I get this kind of errors: Unable to load resource: java.io.IOException: Error writing to server or java.net.SocketException: Connection reset Java version: Java Web Start 10.7.2.11 Using JRE version 1.7.0_07-b11 Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM Here is the trace log: Log started: pe, 21 syys 2012 21:04:19 +0300 basic: Java

I am trying to find a programmatic way to tell if a binary is x86, x64, or ia64. Platform: Windows. Language: c/c++. Background: Before trying to load a third-party dll, I need to find out its bitness. Appreciate any pointers. Shay Erlichmen For EXEs use GetBinaryType(...) Here is same question for manged exe. For DLLs (and EXEs) Use the ImageNtHeader(...) to get the PE data of the file and then check the IMAGE_FILE_HEADER.Machine field. Here is some code I found using Google Code Search No Cleanup and NO error checking // map the file to our address space // first, create a file mapping

I have bad Makefile(s) of a large bundled software distribution. In some point compiler always "forgets" that I want to compile in 32 bit program. This causes that part of the programs have 64 bit libraries and others have 32 bit libraries. How can I force -m32 option every time that I run gcc? br, Juha P.S. My environment is mixed 32/64 bit (macbook5.1, snow leopard). Alternatively: How can I make my system purely 32 or 64 bits? edit: Emphasis on the bad Makefiles that override the global variables. Thats why I chosed the hack that works. If you want a crappy hack, you could replace /usr/bin

I am using a neat table view controller called SKSTableView in my project which allows each table row to have a number of sub rows. This code works perfectly in 32bit mode but when I run it on my iPhone 5S or in the Simulator in 4-inch 64bit mode, when you tap on a row to get the sub rows it crashes. I do not have any knowledge of the differences of 64bit and 32bit iOS systems. I would love to understand what it happening here. You will notice that the *SubRowObjectKey is set to void- the error I get is: EXC_BAD_ACCESS_(code=EXC_I386_GPFLT) Which is a general protection fault trying to access
