How to configure.py botan library to generate amalgamation files for both win32 and x64 build

Question

I'm trying to use the botan library in my vs2013 project. I would like to add amagamated files to my project and be able to create my app in both win32 and x64 builds.

However, the amalgamated files (botan_all.cpp/botan_all.h/botan_all_internal.h) created by configure.py seem to be cpu-specific. Is there a configure.py option (like --cpu=i386,x64) to create files for both builds?

Answer 1

No. You need to create one amalgamation per build. So basically the workflow could be:

• Configure for 32 bit
• Copy botan_all.cpp/botan_all.h/botan_all_internal.h into a 32 bit sub-directory in your project
• Configure for 64 bit
• Copy botan_all.cpp/botan_all.h/botan_all_internal.h into a 64 bit sub-directory in your project
