What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Tesseract Net Wrapper x64

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Win 7 x64

Please provide any additional information below.

Hello all,

Has anyone succeeded in compiling this project as a native x64 dll?
Is it possible?

The unfortunate situation is the current dll is compiled as x86 so
it cannot be included in an x64/any CPU project in windows.

Thanks for any assistance

It's not that much a question whether the wrapper supports x64, it's only about 
tesseract supporting it. The code that acts as the wrapper itself is universal 
enough to be used in both situations. I haven't tried to convert tesseract to 
x64 myself, mainly because i see leptonica libs only for x86, and there might 
be other additional dependencies of some external libs that tesseract uses 
which are possibly x86-only. I believe it's basically possible to compile all 
libs also to x64 with a lot of work, but it still wouldn't guarantee you a 
successful build of tesseract to x64. Also, no version of C++ supports "Any 
CPU" compilation, it's only for .NET managed CLR languages like VB.NET and C#.

Hi tanel

That is what I thought too, the underlying libraries are x86 specific.
It is a pity as a I had great use if the wrapper could have been included in
my x64 project.

Thanks again for taking the time to comment
