Hi, I have a Windows 8 64 bit OS and would like to use Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows 8. Should I install a 64 bit or 32 bit version of Boost? Thanks, Scott

bits?

I will be building DLLs for a 32 bit version of Excel 2013.

Hi, I have a Windows 8 64 bit OS and would like to use Visual Studio Express 2012 for Windows 8. Should I install a 64 bit or 32 bit version of Boost? All the Boost code is pure C++ and independent of 32 or 64 bit. If you need to build libraries (maybe not - most of Boost is header-only) - only then do you need to worry about building with the right with the 64 options set. Paul --- Paul A.
