[opensuse-programming] 32bit / 64bit co-existence
by Per Jessen 27 Aug '08

27 Aug '08

Quick question - how does an application know which library version to pick? The 32bit library is in /usr/lib (for instance), the 64bit version in /usr/lib64 - I'm guessing the executable is marked as 32 or 64bit, and that the loader knows which library path to pick? /Per Jessen, Zürich --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-programming+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-programming+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-programming] Building for i386 on a x86_64 system?
by Per Jessen 27 Aug '08

27 Aug '08

All, our production environment is AMD64, so x86_64. Our test environment is still old i386, and will likely be for a while. How do you guys go about building for an i386 target on your x86_64 workstations? In plain practical terms - I know how to build 32bit objects, but how do you organise source code, builds etc? A typical project would involve one or more binaries, some of our own libraries and some external ditto. /Per Jessen, Zürich --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-programming+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-programming+help(a)opensuse.org
