Dave,

I am reviewing your posts. Many thanks for your great feedback :-)

Regarding 64 bits please keep in mind that it does not mean faster apps. In fact you may only notice some difference when you manage very large amount of data (over 2GB). From a low level point of view, 64 bits mean to use 64 bits CPU registers instead of using 32 bits registers and that means more work for the processor. Vendors want to make us think that 64 bits is faster, but it is not true, except for the above 2GB data consideration.

I am going to review your posts again and provide you the solutions for those symbols and warnings, thanks :-)

regards, saludos

Antonio,

I appreciate all your efforts. I think figuring out the solutions to our problems
like these is the fun part of what we do. :D

I will be working on some additional bench tests to see if I can better understand
what is causing the application to slow down.

Thanks

Antonio,

I have been working in FWH64 all week and things are working very nice.

I am having some problems with turl
The code : ourl = turl():new( curl )

gives me Error BASE/1004 No exported method: NEW

Thanks

Dave,

This example is showing "O" (for an object):
Code (fw): Select all Collapse
#include "FiveWin.ch"

function main()

   local ourl := turl():new( "www.google.com" )

   MsgInfo( Valtype( ourl ) )

return nil
regards, saludos

Antonio,

I have added this to my build64.bat
echo %hdirl%\hbtip.lib >> msvc.bc
and this

include "URLLink.ch"

to my program. Still no luck with the error.
Any suggestions?

Thanks

Dave,

We have to check it though we are some days out of our offices (some little holidays) :-)

We will check it as soon as we get back as we dont have a 64 bits machine here with us, sorry

regards, saludos

Dave,

The Class TUrl belongs to Harbour/xHarbour, it is not a FWH Class.

So I guess you need to link a missing Harbour/xHarbour lib :-)

Antonio,

I have added these lines to my build64.bat

echo %hdirl%\hbtip.lib >> msvc.tmp
echo %hdirl%\hbpcre.lib >> msvc.tmp

However I am still getting this error:

hbrtl.lib(hbsocket.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __imp_WSAIoctl referenced in function hb_socketGetIFaces

Any ideas on this one, my guess it is some where in the VC64 libraries.

Any advice would be most appreciated. :)

Thanks

I may have found the answer to my question.

Added this build64.bat to fix error

echo %vcdir%\lib\ws2_32.lib >> msvc.tmp

Antonio,

I was able to get all my turl problems fixed using the harbour example code. :D

We now have 64 bit trial versions of our products available!

http://com1software.com/c1027.htm

Regarding odbc

I have these libraries in place:

echo %vcdir%\lib\odbc32.lib >> msvc.tmp
echo %vcdir%\lib\odbccp32.lib >> msvc.tmp

I am getting link errors on :
SQLSETPOS()
SQLCANCEL()
SQLGETSTMTOPTION()
SQLEXTENDEDFETCH()
SQLFETCH()

Which library should I bring in to get these funtions working?

Thanks
