Hi gromit,

I tested Pelles C IDE with Windows 7 32 bit and it runs perfectly as usual. It works also great on Windows Vista x64, so I think you shouldn't have any problems with Windows 7 64 bit.

gromit,

I run Pelle's C on Windows 7 64-bit. It works just fine.

To answer your numbered questions:

   1: I would think so, but I don't program for a pda so I can't say for sure.

   2: Yes.

   3: Generally no, but, for example, if you are using an int or a long for a pointer or a handle you would need to change that because pointers and handles must be 64-bit.

I run Pelles C 6.00.4 64bits in Windows 2008 server R2 and I have the prompt from UAC.
I use network drives connected in logon time using netlogon script.
This drives dissapear because UAC open a new login without execute netlogon script.
