Official support for Itanium builds have been dropped from the build. Please

contact us and provide patches if you are interested in Itanium builds.

|

The project files support a ReleaseItanium configuration which creates
|
||||
Win64/Itanium binaries. For this to work, you need to install the Platform
|
||||
SDK, in particular the 64-bit support. This includes an Itanium compiler
|
||||
(future releases of the SDK likely include an AMD64 compiler as well).
|
||||
In addition, you need the Visual Studio plugin for external C compilers,
|
||||
from http://sf.net/projects/vsextcomp. The plugin will wrap cl.exe, to
|
||||
locate the proper target compiler, and convert compiler options
|
||||
accordingly. The project files require at least version 0.9.
