today i started coding c++ for windows, while always been Linux before. I use newest KDevelop with current windows build tools and newest CMake. My problem is as follows: I have got a x64 .lib file of a hardware producer with a bunch of header and .dll files. First thing I learned is, that linking to the only given .lib most likely is enough to include the .dlls? (is this correct?) However as I try to build my project it says something like: "system is x64 while target machine is x86". I tried everything possible on the internet to change target to x64 like my system is. But I don't succeed. Is this a choice of compiler? And if yes, how do i change my compiler in kdevelop to x64? Why does he try to compile in x86 in the first place (everything i use is x64)?

Thanks for the hint and best regards,

Alex

Okay, I found the solution. 1) Delete build directory 2) Start CMake gui 3) Delete Cache if necessary 4) Hit generate and choose an installed, native VS amd64 compiler 5) Configure/Generate.

However I didn't find a solution to integrate that into Kdevelop environment, any suggestions?
