What is required to compile 64bit custom studies inside of Visual studio?
Do I need to change any of my configurations as I have them set now for the 32bit compile.
I've set my Visual studio environment exactly as you describe on your website here

https://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?page=doc/UsingVisualCPlusPlus.php

So, do I need to make changes from what you've described in this link and if so please provide what parameters need changing.

Thanks

You need to create 64-bit solution and project configurations but that is not within the scope of our support. We also will not be updating the Visual C++ documentation either. We have had it with Microsoft and their trash Visual C++ crap and their deranged mentality.

However, in the latest 64 bit version of Sierra Chart, you can use the Visual C++ >> Build command in Analysis >> Build Custom Studies DLL to make a 64 bit DLL.

Being a UNIX guy back in the day, I agree with you. But unless you are going to move to LINUX one wonders how you will get rid of Microsoft. They are here to stay and a lot of us use Visual Studio.

Good Trading,

It is a gradual process but we will make it.

Also, when using the Remote Build function, within Sierra Chart, the source code is compiled using GCC on a Linux server.
