Hi guys.

I downloaded the windows installer for the Beta version, and noticed when
installing that it was installing in the 32 bits program files folder.

Is there an installer of PostgreSQL 64 bits for windows?

Thanks.

Luis

Are there any plans to build 8.4... As 64 bit for Windows?

8.4 cannot be built for 64 bit Windows. Thats only supported with 9.0 and above.

Re: Question about Beta for Windows 64 bits

Will 9.0 also have 64-bit ODBC driver?

What would be the benefit? We considered it with ODBCng but couldn't
find any real suitable purpose.

Linking it into 64-bit applications would be the obvious one, no?

True.

I think it is going to be tough to get on going support for a 64bit
driver.

Shrug :)

Re: Question about Beta for Windows 64 bits

Psqlodbc already supports 64bit. We just need to package it for win64.
