64-bit Filezilla for Vista x64

So I just managed to get a 64-bit version of Filezilla to compile for Vista x64 – FTP and SFTP seem to be working fine although I haven’t had a chance to check proxy or FTP+TLS yet. I’m off to Mammoth Mountain for a weekend of boarding and then I’ll make a beta release right here for the rest of you to test. The only thing I really had to change was disabling the IDNA support (Internationalizing Domain Names in Applications) since it uses libidn which I haven’t been able to get to compile under Visual Studio.

Things would be much easier if there was a 64-bit version of gcc for windows.

    Hi, I noticed that you compiled Filezilla as a x64 binary. Are you making it available as a download or at least the instructions on how you got it to compile?

    Thanks

    I don’t have it fully compiling in release mode yet. It works in debug mode but I haven’t got all my debug mode compile changes ported over to release mode yet. Once I get it working I’ll release a binary here and a patch to the Filezilla people.

    John,

    I assume you’re aware of http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/ (Minimalist GNU for Windows x64.

    Take care.
