Dear all.

I have 32-bit-IDL running under 32-bit-Vista.

From the description of make_rt it did not become quite clear to me
whether or not it is possible to compile a 64-bit app on my system
just by using the /Win64 keyword? Or do I need the 64-bit IDL for
this?

Thanks,
Michael

I was trying just that. I built a directory containing all the files
listed in the manifest for win32, win64, lin32, lin64, macppc32,
macint32 and macint64. That directory can then be passed as an
argument to make_rt (idldir), so that no changes have to be made to
the IDL directory structure. I will look for a place to put a tar file
with it (212Mb), as David suggested.

I also tested making a Linux runtime under Windows, and a Mac runtime
under Linux, and they worked, though with two more caveats:

1) The startup script made in Windows for Linux had CR+LF ending the
lines, which bash did not seem to like. So I had to use dos2unix on
that file to fix it.

2) The launcher for Mac does not get created in Linux, because its is
missing osacompile to make it. It could be solved by either running
osacompile in the Mac, to generate the .app file from the
_mac_script_source.txt file made by make_rt, or by just calling the
program from the terminal.

I put the file at http://www.ppenteado.net/idl/idl71_rt.html
