Building CAA dll for 64 bit windows

Building CAA dll for 64 bit windows
I have an add-in dll that currently only builds for 32 bit CATIA.  What do I need to do to build my code for 64 bit windows?  I've seen a lot of stuff about the MAB, but I don't know if I have this already, if it's the only way to do this, or what.

Can anybody help?

here is the thing you need to have to built a 64 bit dll:
1. 64 Bit XP machine
2. intall 64 Bit CATIA
3. intall 64 bit CAA API ( same media as 32 bit ?)
4. install VS 2005
5. intall RADE.

hope this helps.

Hello,

I'm not able to do it in visual studio, but I created a batch file to call mkmk and I set the parameter _MkmkOS_BitMode to 64.

Set _MkmkOS_BitMode=64

the RADE tool itself is 32bits, but you have to have 64 bits CATIA and API installed in order to compile your module in 64 bits mode.
