I have a laptop with an intel i3 processor running windows 7 64-bit.
I am wondering, can I set up a VM running, say, windows XP 32-bit, and be able to code targeting the intel 32 architecture? will my code compile, run, debug, the same way it would on a native 32bit machine?
thanks!
If the processor isn’t buggy, and the WoW64 layer is working correctly, then your 32-bit code will work pretty much the same on your 64-bit OS. No need for a VM.
