Question about Beta for Windows 64 bits

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

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

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 :)

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