Re: [Quickfix-developers] QF on Windows x64

[Djalma R. d. S. F. <drs...@gm...>]

Hi Francis,

My opinion is that Windows is trying to run your application as a 64 bit
program and actually we know it is not.

x86 code can run only under WOW64, normally the DLL's are loaded from
%windir%\SysWoW64\.

But it seems that you can run .NET application as a 32 bit program only if
compiled with .NET Framework 1.1.

Anyway, It is much more easier deploying native 64 bit application and I've
never had problems compiling QF for x64/ia64 native and .NET.

I suggest that you install VS2005 SP1 and later run vcredist_x64.exe in your
x64 Server.

Following is a good tutorial for creating 64 bit applications.
