Hi,

I noticed that new Windows laptops have appeared on the market with ARM64 architecture processors (e.g. Qualcomm Snapdragon X Plus X1P-42-100). Is U++ ready for this?

Best regards,

Tom

No. But it will probably not be an issue. CLANG-MINGW seems to support these for a long time. And ARM is not a problem - we run on MacOS M1 and Rapsberry PI without issue. Also windows emulate x86.

Thanks Mirek,

I guess this support will need to be sorted out within a couple of years, i.e. just before clients start to wonder why our apps do not install/run on their brand new Windows laptops.

Visual Studio 2022 (x64) can target ARM64 too, so could we be lucky enough to have it working by just adding a suitable BM?

Anyway, I do not have such a laptop, so I will not be able to test this yet.

Best regards,

Tom

EDIT: OK, they may run in emulation, but I mean natively...

Yes. CLANG Toolchain we use even supports it already...
