The Platform should be overridden if you pass it as a property on the command line. There are several places (especially dependent on how may configs and platforms might have been supported in the past) where defaults are set in a *proj file. You need to make sure that none of the defaults are to "Any CPU" unless that is your intent.
Also, it is quite correct that C++ projects require win32 generally. Note that .NET assemblies are generally built "Any CPU" and installers are generally build "x86" or "x64". This means that the overall solution is generally built "Mixed Platform" to get everything building in one pass. As far as the assembly conflicts warning, this generally occurs when you are both building the assembly and using it in other portions of your project via a reference to a checked in binary. Is this the case? You can also get this when different .NET Platform levels are used for different assemblies. Without seeing the whole mess, it is difficult to know for sure. -- John Merryweather Cooper Build & Install Engineer - ESA Jack Henry & Associates, Inc.® Shawnee Mission, KS 66227 Office: 913-341-3434 x791011 jocoo...@jackhenry.com www.jackhenry.com -----Original Message----- From: Alan Hartmann [mailto:a...@proteledata.com] Sent: Thursday, February 13, 2014 2:22 PM To: 'General discussion about the WiX toolset.'

But in addition I noticed a warning: " CrystalDecisions.Windows.Forms, Version=13.0.2000.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304, processorArchitecture=MSIL c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Microsoft.Common.targets(1605, 5): warning MSB3247: Found conflicts between different versions of the same dependent assembly.
