FWH 64 bit with MSVS 2015
Posted: Thu Mar 31, 2016 04:46 PM

I have a rather large application that I can build using:

xBuilder ( xHarbour.com ) 32 bit
Harbour + MSVC 2013 32 bit
Visual Studio 2013 IDE 32 bit

With the release of FWH 64 I can now also build that same application using Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 Community version in 64 bit.

This application does use some additional .dll's and it was important to get all of them in 64 bit versions. I'm waiting to hear from the spell checker company to see if I can get that upgrade. Otherwise, with Antonio's assistance, it now works with ADS 64 bit, and the ssl files are also updated. In addition, I was able to even hook in my Codejock Calendar control because it came with a 64 bit .ocx file.

I had a couple of major objectives.

1) I wanted to have only one set of .prg source files for all of these builds
2) I needed to keep both my Visual Studio 2013 Pro and Visual Studio 2015 Community installed on the same computer.

I have been successful in both cases. The build scripts handle all of the differences.

Although I have some more fine tuning to do, this project with 182 database files and 92 .prg files ( 2.9 MB ) is fully functioning.

I share this so you can all see the possibilities.
