64 bit DLLs and ActiveXs

Hi all

I have some of my development components that ship with both 32bit and 64 bit version.

I would like to know if the 64 bit ActiveX version can be used.

I discover Xbase++ DllLoad() function only loads 32bit dlls. Does 2.0 DllLoad() capable of loading 64bit DLLs ?

Thanks.

Joe

hi,

if you have a 32bit OS() can you run 64bit Apps on it ?
Xbase++ produce 32bit App which can't access 64bit DLL/OCX

For loading ActoveX controls, you need CreateObject(), not DllLoad().
In general, you use 64-bit controls with 64-bit apps, and 32-bit controls with 32-bit apps, and since xBase++ currently generates 32-bit apps...
