compile 32bit programs with 64bit linux?

| Can anyone suggest a relatively easy way to compile BMax apps so that they will run under 32bit linux? |
| ||
| Don't use a 64 bit operating system. |
| ||
| From what I have found, GCC supports compiling to 32bit by passing -m32 as a commandline parameter. |
| ||
| Once mark makes the BMK source available, we'll be able to do this for ourselves :) Just out of interest, can you test whether the BlitzMAX compiler produces 64bit code under Linux or whether it always produces 32bit code (ie. What is sizeof(<integer variable>) under 64bit Linux?) |
| ||
| AFAIK it produces 64bit since GCC does by default, I'll try rebooting into linux in a moment and test it. |
| ||
| bmk has a verbose option if you want to see what it's calling |
| ||
| hmmm... g++ -m32 -s -Os --eh-frame-hdr -pthread -o testb -L/home/kris/BlitzMaxCore106/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib/home/kris/BlitzMaxCore106/tmp/ld.tmp it appears to already be using -m32 but I tried running an app on a friends 32bit machine and it didn't run. *might* be his config. Anyone with 32bit linux care to test an app? |

| no-one then? |
