64-bit compilation broken in Windows?

I was unable to build cmdStan in 64-bit. Here is the error message:

To overcome this, I changed to “BIT=32” in make/os_win. This seemed to work okay.

If this issue known about? If so, perhaps BIT can be set to 32 in os_win by default, until fixed. It stumped me for a bit, until I read more of the documentation.

Operating System: Windows 10
Interface Version: cmdStan 2.15
Compiler/Toolkit: make, g++, via RTools

Which RTools version are you using?

Rtools version 3.4.0.1964

Just found this stack overflow thread. Perhaps the second one may help:

(sorry, debugging blind right now. I don’t have a Windows 10 machine available at the moment.)

Hopefully fixing the path with solve the issue. If that doesn’t work, we can try to figure out how your computer is configured.
