No issues with library, just a suggestion #2

Hi, had tried your library and it works fine in WinDbg x86. :) Just one question - If I build x64 binary, it will work in WinDBG x64? So my suggestion is to maybe just put download of compiled soswow64 library for download as I'm not sure how many .NET developers know how to compile with C++. Best Regards,

64-bit SoS cannot debug 32-bit .NET code, so there wouldn't be much point in a 64-bit build.

Thank you for your feedback. Yes you're right, I was wrong about WinDbg. I thought that I could debug 32bit .NET code when I switch to 32bit mode with wow64ext in WinDBG x64... don't ask me how I had come to that conclusion...
