hi there,

I'd like too know if it is possible to compile/install proview on a 64 bit machine?.. if so how?

thanks,
wernher

Hi,

I guess you are running 64-bit Linux on a 64-bit machine ? I don't see why it sould not be possible. I haven't tried myself (running 32 bit linux on 32-bit machines). There is a guide in the documentation-page that describes how to build from sources.

Proview originally (among others) was built for Open VMS on 64-bit alpha-machines.

Good luck !

thanks for the reply.

ya i'm compiling on a 64 bit OS(ubuntu jaunty) and 64 processor(amd athlon).
I guess if it can be done then my the errors i get when runing make have to do with something else

edit: here is a link to the make output, maybe someone can help me getting it to work,
nodark.nl/make.output

thanks, wernher

Hi,

Probably there was some error from the compilator when compiling the last file co_lng.cpp. Normally you should see the the error messages and also some warning messages that are missing, have you redirected the errormessages ?

The code probably has to be compiled with 32-bit pointers and I don't know if there is any switch to the compiler to do this. To use 64-bit pointer I think there are some conversion of the code to do.
