Hi,

You could introduce a variable to set the target platform from the commandline 
and then use that variable $(var.MyVar) anywhere in the WiX code as a condition 
for specific-target components. But it won't work automatically, it can't get 
the target platform of a binary automatically.

Best regards,
Sebastian Brand
