Would you like to have a Windows ARM64 port?

building for ARM64 isn't a problem. But testing - don't have an ARM64 machine.

Some errors are shown in VS19:

BowPad\src\last\version.h(7) : Info : Run the NAnt script to get proper version info

While compiling the ARM64 version, the executable is linked with comctl32 in WinSxS instead of system32, any solution?

C:\Windows\WinSxs\amd64_microsoft.windows.common-controls_6595b64144ccf1df_6.0.19569.1000_none_6e34fb0e2d4dc0f9\comctl32.dll

the version.h info means that your build uses the default version.h file which does not have the proper version numbers in it but "0.0.0.0".

the link warnings can be ignored and come from the custom scrollbar we use.

as for comctl32 - why should it not use the one in WinSxS?

[stefankueng]

add an

#if defined(_M_IX86) || defined(_M_X64)
// pragma
#endif

around the pragma in stdafx.h

Scintilla it self works well on ARM64 (Windows 10) and ARM32 (Windows 10 on ARM64, and the discontinued Windows RT) without any code changes.
See zufuliu/notepad4#134 (see comments, SC_TECHNOLOGY_DIRECTWRITERETAIN is used as default on ARM32)

Apology for late reply. I have tested BowPad ARM64 latest master branch (as of today) in Windows 10 ARM64 build 20161. It works without any issue. Thank you ❤️
