Hi,
It seems that the FDOExtention is not working for x64 operating system.
I want to know that:
do you have any newer version for x64?
OR
can you tell me when you or the OGC guys will publish version that support x64?

Ben

Ben,
I checked the OGC and they have published new version 3.5.0 which is full 64-bit Windows support already, however it released at October 15, 2010 that we have no time to update our FdoExtension to integrate it yet.
Since we know there is new version of fdo library supports x64, I will create a todo task in our working system, hope we can finish it soon.
Thanks for your notice.
James
Many thanks for your answer,
I’m waiting for your new FDO library release.
Glad to be of service.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Tsui
would you please give me a rough estimate about the time you will release your FDO-library(support x64) ?
Regards,
Ben
Ben,
I am sure there is not just you, are many users wait for new FdoExtension release, we will release it ASAP.
However, we’re still in researching step, I will reminder you if we estimate a time to release.
Thanks
James
Many thanks
Best wishes,

You are welcome, Ben.
Please let us know if you have any other questions.

When they write 64-bit windows support does they mean compilation for 64bit windows but still 32 bit application ?
Or do they mean 64bit app for 64bit windows ?

zhu,
They provide both 32bit and 64bit unmanaged DLLs, so if you want to reference them directly, your 32 bit application use 32bit DLLs for 32bit windows, your 64bit application use 64bit DLL for 64bit windows. And if we update our FdoExtension which is managed DLL, you can use it in both 32bit and 64bit windows with the same reference.
Thanks

I would like to use an x64 version of MapSuite WPF, but I’m also dependent on FDO. So add one more to the ‘waiting for x64’ list
We’re working on FdoExtension update. Our plan is update library from 3.4 to 3.5 first, and then make it work at x64 environment. However, the new version may have some API break-changed, so even x86 can not work for 3.5 new library.
I will update our status.
Thanks
James

Ben,
We have already updated it to 3.5 and also support x64 Windows, if you want to get new assemblies please contact our support by emailing support@thinkgeo.com
Thanks
James
Hi James,
Why the x64 assemblies are not released as the standard x86 ones?
Carlos
Carlos,
We did the same way as the x86 one, however how do you use x86 ones, first you need to add reference FdoExtension.DLL which can be found that daily build DllPackage, and then you need to copy related assemblies to system32, they’re existing at installation folder. So we also add the x64 related assemblies to installer, if you can get the latest installer, you can uninstall the old version and then install the new version to your disk, you can find them. Normally, the installer will publish twice at one year, May 1st and Nov 1st, but actually it will be generated everyday just not public to users.
Thanks
James
Ok James, its good to know.
So x64 FDO support is fully working now, right?. What will be required to add to our installers in order to provide FDO compatibility with both x86 and x64 systems; to add the FdoExtension.dll reference (the same for x86 and x64 systems) into the application root, and copy MapSuiteFdoExtensionx86 AND MapSuiteFdoExtensionx64 folders to \System32? or it will be like a \System32\MapSuiteFdoExtension folder containing all required assemblies for the two kind of arquitectures?
Thanks,
Carlos.
Carlos,
Yes, they are working at the same way. And also we have updated the HowDoI samples, they are working at x64 OS.
To use the FDO functions, you have to reference [Install-Path]\Developer Reference\Spatial Extensions\Fdo Extension\FdoExtension.dll, And copy MapSuiteFdoExtensionx86/MapSuiteFdoExtensionx64 folder from [Install-Path]\Developer Reference\System32 to System32 folder for x86/x64 platform.
Thanks
James
Many thanks, I got the files from the support team.
I am writing X86 application on X64 OS.
My Application currently opening FDO files without any problem on X64 OS, do you know it will work on X86 OS too or I need to create another version of application which use X86-FDO dlls to work on X86 OS?

Ben
