[ecf-dev] ECF, Skype, and 64-bit systems
|
Has anyone run ECF and its provider plugins (specifically Skype) on 64-bit Linux?
As I've stated here before, we build on a 64-bit Linux system and the resulting build is intended for both Windows and Linux systems. And we've encountered some difficulties. Consequently, I've stopped the OSU auto builds. I'm planning to move the OSU builds to a 32-bit Linux system.
Built on 64-bit Linux, ECF works everywhere ... it works on 32-bit/64-bit Window/Linux systems. Congratulations on great protability.
However, the Skype plugin has some issues. Built on 64-bit Linux, it does not work on 32-bit Windows. It does work on 32-bit Linux. Last Sunday I tried it out on 64-bit Linux (another person's machine and not a lot of access time), but it did not (not!) appear to work. This was unexpected. I have not been able to try it on 64-bit Windows because I don't have access to a 64-bit Windows machine.
A thank-you to Peter Nehrer is appropriate. His directions for debugging an already built plugin work fine and provided us with good information. We now think we understand why the Skype built on 64-bit Linux does not run on 32-bit Windows. Unfortunately, understanding is a long way from fixing. However, we did expect it to run on 64-bit Linux.
So my question ... who is working with 64-bit machines and what have you experienced? Specifically can you see ECF and Skype work together on any 64-bit system?
