[TheGoldenEye]

Hi, can you please provide x64 windows builds? Thx

Hello, at the moment it is difficult: I have no Visual Studio environment. I should have time to learn, test and so on, however for the future this is the road to take, so I mark the issue as an enhancement but I have not a final date right now.

This is necessary in order to handle large XML files. I did some research and learned that Qt has architecture-agnostic pointers. That is Qt takes care of using the right sizes when compiling for 32-bit or 64-bit. I looked at the code and these pointers were not used. Maybe introducing them would be a first step.

Thank you so much for writing this awesome program!

I'm sorry I can't help you directly.
I currently have neither the time nor the resources to post a 64-bit Windows build, but you can compile it yourself from the sources or seek help on it.
I'm currently using the 64-bit Linux version, so I think there's no problem doing this for Windows.

Sorry for not being able to solve your problem.
Best regards.

Thank you for your prompt response. For large files I use the 64-bit version on Linux. I tried compiling it on Windows, but ran into problems. But, that was some years ago. I could try with the current main branch.
