There are cygwin 64- and 32-bit native compilers and mingw 32- and 64-bit compilers on the setup.exe menu in case you mean to build for one of those targets.On Fri, Apr 25, 2014 at 01:26:22PM -0400, Tom Szczesny wrote:I have a 64-bit Windows laptop, and installed Cygwin several years ago. I wish to verify that I did install the 64-bit installation. I get the following results: cygcheck -V cygcheck (cygwin) 1.7.15 uname CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 If I did install the 64-bit version, when I rebuild my Linux app on Cygwin, do I automatically get a 64-bit executable (that will not run on a 32-bit Windows computer)?1) No, you didn't install a 64-bit version of Cygwin. "uname -a" should make that clear. You'll need to instal a 64-bit version if that's what you want. 2) Cygwin doesn't build Linux apps. If you have a cross-compiler then it won't automatically decide to build 64-bit Linux apps because you are on a 64-bit sytem.
