    Compile .NET application to run on 64-bit environment

    I would like to know how I can compile .NET application to run on a 64 Bit environment.  My development machine is 32 bit so is there a configuration in .NET to allow me to compile for 64-bit?  Anything else need to be done on the 64-bit environment? Do I need to setup a 64-bit development environment?

    You are in the wrong sub-forum - this is about feedback for the iis.net site itself.

    If your .net application is IL only (i.e. has no unmanaged code in it), the same binary should work on both x86 and x64.  If you do have unmanaged code, you can build for both 32 and 64 bit targets from 32-bit machine using visual studio.

    I recommend that you ask this question in the .NET development forums on msdn.  They have a forum for 64bit development here:
    http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/netfx64bit/threads

    Thanks!
    Pete.
