Building On X64 Platform

[ArdalanNejat]

Dear all,
can anyone compile and build opensees on x64 platform without any link error?
If yes, would you please explain steps for me please?

I doubt you can build straight away without any errors. You should give it a go and then see what errors you get, I don't think anyone can tell you for sure what will happen until you try

Dear Bag006,
Off course I gave it a try and numerous LNK2019 error showed up from VS and I changed my windows to 32bit platform and all of errors vanished and everything now works fine in 32bit windows but I'm sick of 32bit windows so I wondered if anyone did the compiling and building on 64bit windows successfully!

What were the errors? Most likely you had the wrong tcl version.

yes i build it .. it requires all the projects be changed and built for x64 .. that tcl be removed and the 64bit version installed in the same original location .. that you link the 64 bit fortran libraries in Win32/lib64 .. you may also need a 64bit intel fortran compiler for linking (though not sure about this one)
