Q. I have a large project on VCwhich includes some third party .cpp & header files. Now I would like to make it 64-bit .NET platform compatible and that too without using any third party interfaces. What would I need to do? Please help me out in this regard.
A. Removing dependencies on 3rd-party interfaces means implementing equivalent services in your own code without violating the 3rd-party's intellectual property. Once that's been done in the 32-bit version of the code, then go through the process of porting it to 64-bit like any other codebase: Use the /Wp64 flag to find the easy 64-bit issues in your 32-bit code, and then build and test with the 64-bit compiler. Porting the codebase to the .Net interfaces is a similar process, and can be complicated if you are porting from native (C/C++) to managed code (C#) that uses different APIs.
