64 bit OS

[Guest]

Hi,

When I create and executable (with VS running on 32 bit OS) with solution
configuration for platform "Any CPU", how does run this application on 64 bit
OS? Is this app running like WOW or will it be running like a true 64 bit
application?

Thanks,

Lubomir

Any CPU apps will run as 64 bit.

BUT:

If your app attempts to load a 32 bit native assembly at any point you'll
crash the app.
