    Question Target Change and re-compilation??

    Hi,

    Please help with a general question here.

    We have a 32-bit SLES build server and we compile our 32-bit application on top of it. Our target is 32-bit SLES.

    Now, if we want to change our target to 64-bit SLSE and keep the application 32-bit, do we need change the build server to 64-bit and recompile the application with some flags? OR can we use the 32-bit binaries compiled on 32-bit SLES build server?

    We use g++ compiler. It would be great if any Linux Guru can give me the steps to be followed.

    Thanks & Regards,
    Ramesh.

    32 bit will run on a 64 bit OS. The reverse is not true.

    You do not have to do anything special in a build.
