64-bit appliacations support

Post by giaur »

Hello,

As I know, I can compile wine to support for running 64-bit windows appliacation - it works (tested), but 32-bit is not supported in this case. And, if I compile for 32-bit, 64-bit apps are not supported.

Why did you separate 64-bit and 32-bit, why can't it work like in real Windows system? I mean 32 and 64 libraries both, with one the same prefix? Is this possible to configure wine this way today?

Read the section "Building a shared WoW64 setup (most likely what you want)."

Hello,

This is still not really clean for me. Should I:
- first, compile wine as 64 bit
- second, compile as 32 with providing path to already compiled 64-bit sources
- do "make install", checkinstall etc
- after this, it will be possible to run 32 and 64 bit applications both with the same default prefix?

Sorry it does not work:

Simple command:

Code: Select all

wine notepad
And result:

Code: Select all

wine: could not exec wineserver
Compilation as described here: http://wiki.winehq.org/Wine64 section "Building a shared WoW64 setup ", wine 1.5.4, debian Sid x64

Also: winecfg not found, wineboot not found etc... is this wow64 even works?

The instructions on that page don't talk about installing Wine, just building it. Does your build work if you run it from the build directory?

Yes, it works form build directory. So - how to install it? "make install" causes issues as described above.

Also, I preffer checkinstall instead of "make install", but this is the same in this case.
