A collector can be built with Microsoft Visual C++ 2005. +The resulting test programs have been known to work at least once. +More testing would clearly be helpful. + +Currently only NT_X64_STATIC_THREADS_MAKEFILE has been used in +this environment. Copy this file to MAKEFILE, and then type "nmake" +in a Visual C++ command line window to build the static library +and the usual test programs. To verify that the colllector is +at least somewhat functional, run gctest.exe. This should create +gctest.exe.log after a few seconds. + +This process is completely analogous to NT_STATIC_THREADS_MAKEFILE +for the 32-bit version. + +Note that currently a few warnings are still generated by default, +and a number of others have been explicitly turned off in the makefile. |
