Re: Fw: How to Port 32bit source code in compatible to 64bit OS

[Syam Prasad Nagabairu <snagabairu at indusrad dot com>]

Holger Krull,

thanks for ur response.I am having only 32bit linux system. but my
application to be build should be compatible to 64 bit. Is there any cross
compilation facility for this. i mean 32bit source code to be build on
32bit linux system but for 64bit machine.




Here I already ported the source code to gcc from diab compiler by using
cygwin environment on Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]. Now the
requirement for me is to port this code on Linux in particular SUSE
linux.actually my need is to simulate the code on model. we need to port it
in compatible to 64bit. is it possible to port a 32 bit source code on
GNU/linux(i686 machine processor)? I am beginner in linux!please help me.


As far as i know there is no 64 Bit Cygwin. As your code already compiles
on cygwin, just give it a try on a 64 Bit linux system. Depending on what
librarys where used it maybe just works.
