Building BlitzmaxNG

[Henri]

Hi,

it doesn't matter if bcc, bmk or MaxIDE were compiled using 32-bit architecture, only what architecture your own exe is compiled to. This is selected via MaxIDE architecture options or directly using bmk via commandline with -g architecture flag (like -g X64).

Note that no manual rebuilding of modules is recommended anymore, as this is done automatically by bmk. If you run the script, then everything should be up-to-date already. Alternative is to download latest full release from GitHub.

LongBin is a retro function and requires long as a parameter:

Code Select Expand

Framework brl.standardio
Import brl.systemdefault
Import brl.Retro

?X64
Print "Running in 64-bit"
?
?X86
Print "Running in 32-bit"
?

Print LongBin(2^48)
Local abc:Long = 2^48
Print LongBin(abc)
