Re: DLLs favailable for 64bit Windows? (General questions)

Randal,

our components are written in ATL using VC6 - I don't think VC6 is capable of producing 64bit binaries.

In order to rebuild with VS2005 it is virtually imposible since ATL is quite different.

Isn't tehre any other option to load that DLL?

Ah, what I'm running into makes lots of sense now. Your answer is
spot on. One would need to recompile under VS2005 to get a DLL
I can load directly from our app and ATL did change quite a bit so
a simple recompile would not really work for us. I guess our other
option would be to write a stub 32bit app which could access your
DLL and we would open that app with some IPC mechanism...
That was one thing I was were hoping to avoid with your DLL. I
assume you don't have any immediate plans to make the jump to
VS2005 anytime soon?

Thanks.
