The project can then be compiled as follows:

```shell
|

meson setup --buildtype=release --cross-file cross-wine64.conf build
|
||||
meson setup --buildtype=release --cross-file cross-wine.conf build
|
||||
ninja -C build
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
When developing or debugging yabridge you can change the build type to either
|
||||
`debug` enable debug symbols and disable optimizations.
|
||||
### 32-bit bitbridge
|
||||
|
||||
It's also possible to compile a 32-bit host application for yabridge that's
|
||||
compatible with 32 bit plugins such as old SynthEdit plugins. This will allow
|
||||
yabridge to act as a bitbirdge, allowing you to run old 32-bit only Windows VST2
|
||||
plugins in a modern 64-bit Linux VST host. For this you'll need to have
|
||||
installed the 32 bit versions of the Boost and XCB libraries. This can be
|
||||
enabled as follows:
|
||||
|
||||
```shell
|
||||
# On an existing build
|
||||
meson configure build -Duse-bitbridge=true
|
||||
# Configure a new build from scratch
|
||||
meson setup --buildtype=release --cross-file cross-wine.conf -Duse-bitbridge=true build
|
||||
|
||||
ninja -C build
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will produce two files called `yabridge-host-32.exe` and
|
||||
`yabridge-host-32.exe.so`. Yabridge will detect whether the plugin you're trying
|
||||
to load is 32-bit or 64-bit, and will run either `yabridge-host.exe` or
|
||||
`yabridge-host-32.exe` accordingly.
