I'm actually already using a <?if $(var.Platform)=x64?><?else?><?endif?> around the package element to make the MSI 64 or 32 bit. However my files are placed in ProgramFilesFolder\{my folder}. My issue is that ProgramFilesFolder is resolving to the wrong place in x64. I assume I can fix this if I use a <?if?> on each file element in each component and specify the platform as x64 or x86 appropriately and map it to the *SAME* binary file. I can do this because my binaries are platform agnostic.
I was hoping there was something easier however. --Peter -----Original Message----- From: Christopher Karper [mailto:christopher.kar...@gmail.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 27, 2009 1:03 PM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset. Subject: Re: [WiX-users] platform agnostic file flag? MSI requires that the installer be marked as 32-bit or 64-bit. I just made one WXS file that will work for both, then I set my target directory to the correct place for that platform.
