I'm wondering if there is any plan for native code compilation on 64 bit windows using the Visual Studio toolchain? Microsoft do ship a 64 bit assembler with it (at least in VC2005 beta and the DDK). However, they have defined 'long' as 32 bits rather than the more usual 64 bits on a 64 bit OS. Are there any other particular 'gotchas' preventing a straightforward port? Thanks, Niall
