Linking 32 and 64 bit libraries

[Edward Wynn]

Hi,

Can anyone tell me if its possible to link 32 bit and 64 bit libraries together in the same executable ? (I have a 64 bit program that I require to use a third party library which is 32 bit)

Thanks in advance, Eddie

Hi Edward,

I'm afraid it's not possible.

Hi Edward:

No. See:

http://devresource.hp.com/STK/ia64from11x.html#checkwellrest

"Since 32-bit applications can only link with 32-bit libraries and 64-bit applications can only link with 64-bit libraries, if you plan to provide support for both 32-bit applications and 64-bit applications, you must provide both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of your libraries.".
