Thanks! I just *knew* there must be an easier way!
Do you happen to know of any CPU-detection resources for 64-bit? I'm doing
some game development and there's a piece of assembler that determines what
CPU features are available, and I need to port that to AMD64.
The other piece of code I need to port is serialization logic that turns
pointers into 32-bit unsigned tags, and stores the tag back into the
pointer before streaming to disk or network. I'll probably have to create
dual class stacks to hold the on-media 32-bit-compatible form and the
in-memory version with 64-bit pointers.
