> Could somebody point me to a technical explanation of why it's sometimes non trivial to just compile your app against x86-64 and call it a day? Because the program uses a deprecated 32-bit API. Once the deprecated 32-bit API is dropped, the program simply won't compile. Also, the modern 64-bit API is different. And by different I mean it has a completely different design and set of interfaces. So to get the program to work again you have to port the program from using the old 32-bit API to using the non-deprecated 64-bit API. That's non-trivial work. Edit: clarification |
