Building Error 32 bit .exe using cross compiler on 64 bit platform

Question

I was able to build 64 bit .exe using cross compiler path on 64 bit platform as below C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\BIN \x86_amd64;

But when I tried to build 32 bit .exe using same path and on same 64 bit platform. I am getting an error like below,

fatal error LNK1112: module machine type 'x64' conflicts with target machine type 'X86'

I think it may be possible to build 32 bit .exe using 32 bit path as below C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\VC\BIN, But if I try to build with 32 bit path I may get TrackFileAccess Error.

Can I know any solution how to build 32 bit .exe using cross compiler on 64 bit platform

Thanks&Regards, Deva P

The error means you're trying to link an x64 built lib into your x86 program. Check your linker Additional Library Directories paths are set to the right location (i.e. 64 bit versions), and that any libraries you're building yourself have the right build configuration set.
