Ranorex and x64 platforms

Post by CatLusi » Fri Jun 27, 2008 6:02 pm

Hi,

Does it possible to build some automation actions for the x64 platforms (Windows 2003 Enterprise x64 Edition, Windows Server 2008 Datacenter Eenterprise Standard x64 and etc.) on VC or C++ using Ranorex?

Thanks,
Borys

The RanorexCore.dll is a 32bit DLL, so your automation process also needs to be a 32bit process. You can, however, access controls and elements residing in 64bit process. This means that Ranorex can be used on 64bit platforms to automate 64bit applications, but the application that runs the test must itself be a 32bit process.

This issue has been discussed before in the following thread:
