Hi there,

I am porting a project to IA64, AMD64(X64) with VS2005 Professional Edition
on a 32bit box. The version of VS2005(32bit) I used is 8.0.50727.42.

However, I just found that only x64 cross-compiler is offered with VS2005
and there is no AMD64 cross-compiler! I wonder if IA64 cross-compiler is
available now and how can I get it ? If I need to install special service
pack or SDK ?

Thanks,
-Yuanfei

x64 IS AMD64...

The professional edition does not have an IA64 compiler. This is only
available with "Team Sutie"...

See: Visual Studio 2005 Product Line Overview

The IA64 compiler is available at least with the W2003SP1 and W2003R2
PSDK (command-line compiler).

Hi Jochen,

Thanks for your help !

I'd like to have compilers I used for x86, X64, IA64 conformed to the same
C++ standards. So I suspect that IA64 compiler in W2003R2 is similiar to
that in VS2003 rather than VS2005. Can you please confirm this ?

In addition, is "Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite" availalbe for download now ?
If yes, do you happend to know the download location for subscriber ?

Many Thanks,
-Yuanfei

AFAIK the PSDK compiler is "between" the VC2003 and VC2005 compiler...

If you have at least "Visual Studio Team Edition for Software Developers
with MSDN Premium Subscription" you can donwload this version.
