Daniel,
i will look into it (meaning Tieman changes) and send you feedback

Daniel,

I have those patches to make Iometer work on EM64T/AMD64. I did a merge
last week with the top of the Iometer Source Forge tree so you shouldn't
have problems applying the patch. I'm not married to any of these
changes so feel free to change file names or remove things from the
patch.

There are actually a few different things that this patch fixes.

I'm using the latest Visual Studio which does C++ floating point
differently. It has multiple copies of some functions based on the
variable types. I had to fix up the code in MeterCrtl.cpp to conform to
the latest C++ libraries.

I didn't like the structure called SOCKET containing things other than
the usual network Socket information, so I changed it. It was small but
made the code easier to read.

The Interlocked... functions behave differently in the different
environments I had to compile under. I had some real problems making in
work for 64 bit Linux and 64 bit Windows DDK with the same code. So I
made some macros to make the work easier. It's not real pretty but it
works well.

And of course I had to make changes to get the data structures and
pointers to work correctly with 64 bit pointers and longs.

Henry
