Windows 64 bit Server vs x64 apps

I have the source code for a 32-bit dll (Windows) that I am trying to re-compile as a 64 bit dll. I have been told that the app "can compile in VC++ 64-bit mode to target AMD64 or Itanium processors running Windows 64 bit Server."

I am trying to decipher this: if it runs on Windows 64 bit server, should it also run on x64 bit Windows?

Solution

  • AMD64 and x64 and x86-64, and Intel64 and EM64T are essentially same thing, with different names.
