NET Software running on x64 but compiled on x86 for Any CPU (VS2008)?

AnyCPU is great if you are using managed code only. Managed code can be executed in a 32-bit-process or 64-bit-process. With AnyCPU, the framework chooses the bitness native to the OS The same is not true for unmanaged code.It needs to be compiled either as 32-bit or 64-bit code.

Of course, due to the WoW64 subsystem, 64-bit Windows can run 64-bit processes But 64-bit processes cannot load 32-bit modules (DLLs, OCXs, etc. ) That means if your program is using unmanaged modules of some kind, better make sure to set the bitness manually so that all components have the same bitness.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
