64-bit vs. 32-bit


result from uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 Toshiba 1.7.17(0.262/5/3) 2012-10-19 14:39 i686 Cygwin

Sorry that I was not clear.
I have an open source app (hosted on github.com) that was developed
for Linux.  It compiles and works on Windows-64 using my current
version of Cygwin, but I suspect that I am getting a 32-bit executable
as a result.

I wish to get a 64-bit executable, which I intend to redistribute to
other Windows users.

Do I need to uninstall my 32-bit version of Cygwin from my laptop
before I install the 64-bit version of Cygwin?
