GCC C for ARM running on windows 8 64bit

[William Gaatjes]

Does anybody know if the GCC C compiler (windows version) for the ARM processors run on windows 8 64 bit ?

I am making a list of programs that i use to make sure that these programs run on windows 8 64 bit or to find an alternative solution.


One of these programs is GNU GCC C for ARM processors.

Not offhand, but if it runs on 8 32-bit it should also run on 64-bit.

If it's not 8-compatible you could always run it in a virtual machine. VM with a shared folder on the host OS works well.

I doubt you'll have any issues with command line tools like the GCC compiler. They use relatively few Windows APIs and don't usually run into compatibility issues. As Dave said, you can always run it in a VirtualBox VM.
