Store question

Jim Harsh

Our application runs on 32 and 64 bit (in 32 bit mode) windows and 32
and 64 bit linux. I'm starting to have some problems keeping thing
straight. There are some differences between the 64 bit Linux and the
rest of the platforms. I know nothing about store. Does store support
different machines accessing a common Store DB. Can it keep track of
the diiferences required by the 64-Linux but have the other 99.9% of
the code common between all the platforms?

Sorry for the newbie questions.

Jim

Store itself would only require that the Database drivers you use in your OS be 64 bit. For PostGreSQL which uses sockets, this shouldn't be an issue, since it uses the OS's socket layer.

As for the rest of Store, it doesn't do anything 64 bit-ish.

NEVER a problem!
