I’m a starting programmer and I can’t solve a problem I have now.
In MFC, I have a .lib binary file without the sources. I need to make a 64bit application that uses mentioned library file.
I thought about making 32bit console program and run one program from another, for example using IPC with WM_COPY~ (or something like that), but the .lib file needs so many attributes like array, struct, pointer, …
Is there an easier way to use that 32bit library in my 64bit application?
Thanks
You don’t have any other alternative; you cannot load a 32-bit assembly in a 64-bit program, so you’ll need to create a 32 bit application that your 64 bit application can talk to somehow. There are lots of ways to do IPC, so find one that works for you.
