Similarly, is there a tag that can differentiate between different versions of Windows?

We plan to use the output of the ver command to differentiate in scripts, but I just wondered if a better way existed.

Best,
Justin

Hi,
Im trying to figure out how to update same package on different OS
architectures (i.e. x86 and x64), for example tortoise svn.
Creating two package profiles probably would not work as one (for the
wrong architecture) would be installed and the right one updated. I
guess you can fiddle with the priority but that would be a
hack at best.
Another option would be to do an additional check for environmental
variable %PROCESSOR_ARCHITECURE%
My question is, does wpkg package has a special tag that
would limit the
application of the package automatically, i.e.
<architecture=x86|x64 />

Luk,
        there is no such attribute.

See http://wpkg.org/Notepad_plus_plus for an example of installing a 32-bit 
application on x86 and AMD64.

See http://wpkg.org/UltraDefrag for an example of using a 64-bit or 32-bit 
installer, depending on the platform.

The second example could be changed to include the PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE in 
the installer name, which will reduce the install and upgrade commands by one 
and simplify the commands.

<install 
cmd='"%SOFTWARE%\UltraDefrag\ultradefrag-micro-edition-3.0.0.bin.%PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE%.exe"
 /S /NCRC' />

For this one would need to change i386 to x86 for the 32-bit installer.
