In 2.0 RTM, basically everything defaults to 32-bit (x86/Intel) unless
explicitly marked as 64-bit. The "Platforms" attribute of the "Package"
element does not change that.
In 3.0 RTM, basically everything defaults to whatever the "-arch"
commandline parameter indicates. The "Platform" attribute of the "Package"
element is one of those things that is defaulted by the "-arch" switch.

Setting packa...@platform does not, however, change the defaults.

The recommended practice is to set the -arch commandline switch, and not
author either @Platform or @Win64 at all unless needed to override the
defaults.

Subject: [WiX-users] marking a component 64-bit

Hi:
If I set the wix package platform attribute to x64, do I need to mark a
component as 64-bit, or is the component marked using the platform element?
Any help appreciated.
Sean.
