Hi,

this is the status/plan, from Pharo side:

• 64bits cog vm is already working, missing support for some plugins and most important: FFI.
• Eliot is currently working on 64bits FFI (not full time, of course).

FFI works already.

• I will start working on pharo 64bits like… right now (bah… in fact in one or two weeks)
• I will adapt UFFI to accept 64bits right after (since it was designing knowing that this was going to happen, it will be fairly straightforward).

In summary, according to my plan: Pharo 5 summer release will include 64bits support :)

cheers, Esteban

With the release of Pharo 5, some 64-bit questions arose on reddit. Could Eliot and/or Esteban report on current 64-bit progress/plan for Squeak/Pharo that could be referred to from other forums.

cheers -ben
