Hi,
I am planning to migrate to Windows 7-64 bits. Is there any incompatibility between Windows 7 and U++? Is there any problem with Microsoft C++ compiler for 64 bits? Are there useful tips to be considered?
Thank you,
Javier

Mirek,
What you are saying is that it is not possible to debug a 64 bit compiled application with U++, is it not?
For example, let us say that you are planning to compile a program with U++, using the Microsoft 64 bit C++ compiler, is it possible to do it completely in U++, including its debugging?
Since you are working with a 64 bit environment (Win 7-64 bits), are not you making the most of it? I mean a 64 bit application, running in a 64 bit environment, has to be better compared with its equivalent developed in a 32 bit system.

Yes, everything works except integrated debugger.

Only marginally. And as the most executables I produce for my living have to work on 32-bit windows, it really does not matter much.
I guess for most win32 programmers this is the same. Perhaps this is why nobody bothered to fix that debugger yet (Even if that should be relatively easy).

Which debugger and for what code?
|
I meant TheIde's debugger in Win7 64. Two weeks ago I had to work only on my laptop (where Win7 64 is installed) and lack of debugger was really annoying . It would be great Mirek if you could take a look at it (of course there is no rush).

I repeat that I am running Win7 64 and debugger works just fine, for 32-bit apps.
So, are you referring to 64-bits apps (where it is known it does not work), or something bad is with 32-bit apps debugging?

I'm sorry I thought it was clear . I was trying to debug 64b application. But if debugging 32-bit apps in 64bit environment works then no problem (why I didn't try it - I really don't know ).
