Is win7 64bit supported?
« on: November 29, 2012, 11:37:48 pm »
Hello, I've been looking for a new C++ compiler lately because I got a new laptop, and its a 64 bit set up, which my previous compiler could not build binaries for. Getting an IDE along with the package would be a great added bonus! Do the built in compilers that come with Codeblocks support win64, and if so, what other goodies does Codeblocks come with that I might have missed?

Thank you very much for your help,
Pix

There is only a version of an 32 MinGW Compiler for some releases with mingw in there filename.

You need to install a 64 bit compiler!

Ah, I see. The main page had led me to believe that there was also a GNU GCC compiler also included, and I thought that might support win64. Could you direct me to any good 64 bit compilers?
