[Boost-users] compilation on Win64 platform with MSVC7.1 for 64 bit

Hi,

we're using Boost 1.30.0 with MSVC7.1 on a Win32 platform.
Currently where working on a port to a Win64 platform using the MSVC7.1 for
IA64 compiler. (13.10.2240.8 for IA64)
I just compiled the code as is and unfortunately I encountered errors in
boost headers.
This probably is because of missing/bad defines for this 'unknown' platform
in the config headers...
I was wondering if somebody already tried to compile boost on a 64 bit
platform, and if he/she succeeded?
Or if there are known implementation details which would cause boost 'never'
to work on 64 bit platforms?

If there are no known 'showstoppers' then I suppose I'll have to go through
the Boost Configuration Reference or should I look somewhere else?

Thanks,

Bart
