Compiling for 64 and 32 bit

TridentKing · 06-21-2007, 01:15 AM

I use Anjuta for my C/C++ code. All of my installed packages are the 64 bit versions.

I installed Suse 10.2 on an AMD 64 machine and now I wonder if the default compilation is 32 or 64 bit?

Also, how can I switch back and forth between compiling
32 bit and 64 bit programs?

PS
It really doesn't matter what compiler I use, but I like Anjuta. I'll use gcc, Kdevelop or whatever...

Suse 10 should be 64-bit... But it should be backward compatible with 32bit programs...
And clarify things... No matter what IDE you use(Anjuta, KDevelop, etc)... In linux... Generally you're using GCC(gcc or g++)

Hope this helps...
