32 and 64 bit versions (wodHttpDLX)

by dirk, Thursday, April 22, 2010, 11:32 (5124 days ago)

In the release notes of the wodHTTPDLX component I read:


1.7.1 January 22, 2010
* Distribution now contains x86 and x64 binaries


Does this mean that both are installed even on a 32 bits system?
Do they have different names and if so what are their names (both for the cert-management as for the http part itself).
I suppose that if I compile (VB6) an app and it's used on a 64 bits system that they will need the 64 bit versions of the DLL? Will I have to re-compile my app on a 64 bit system then (even knowing that VB6 as such isn't 64 bit aware)?

Dirk,

They aren't installed on x64 systems, since registering those binaries would fail anyway.

You can find all the technical information (such as names) in our documentation, or the following URL: http://www.weonlydo.com/HttpDLX/Help/Technical.html

Basically, x64 versions have 64 in their names.

32 bit applications do work on x64 platforms, but the binaries need to be placed into SysWOW64 folder and registered there.

If 64-bit version can only be used on 64bit systems in environments that can compile 64-bit applications.

So on a 64 bits system I should still use the 32 bits DLLs if the app in 32 bit compiled, right?

Dirk,

Yes, that's correct.
