Description
Sean Goodpasture has written an article on building Xapian and the C# bindings on 64 bit Windows: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/library/XapianUnderWindows.aspx This could be used as the foundation for updated Windows build files (which should probably be renamed from 'Win32' accordingly!)

OK, this issue has now been addressed so closing the ticket.

I've now successfully built C# bindings for 64 bit Windows, using free versions of the Microsoft tools on a 32 bit platform. This isn't a particularly straightforward process so it's not appropriate to fold into the Windows build file distro at the moment, I will hopefully work out a tidy way to do this in the future. I have written a Wiki article at http://trac.xapian.org/wiki/BuildXapianForSixtyFourBitWindows as a temporary measure.
