Greetings all!
Here is an uh official stance on the ChucK 64-bit issue.
First of all, as you discovered, ChucK does not currently support 64-bit,
and the main issue is the pointer size compatibility. It is not a trivial
problem to fix (as far as I can tell) - looking through the code,
especially in the type system, emitter, and byte code instructions, there
are places marked with comments where 64-bit compliance may be
problematic.
Secondly, this is definitely a priority to us. We fully plan for ChucK to
support 64-bit eventually, though the timeframe is not clear.
The question is this: is it possible to compile ChucK under 64-bit linux
in a 32-bit mode? (We don't know this answer to this one).
Thanks for the interest. Again, we are very much interested to get things
working on 64-bit linux.
Thanks!
Ge!
