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. -----Original Message----- From: Sean Farrow [mailto:sean.far...@seanfarrow.co.uk] Sent: Saturday, December 25, 2010 3:53 PM To: wix-users@lists.sourceforge.net 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.
