Rick,
I haven't needed the ArchitectureInstallIn64BitMode setting yet, but am
paying attention to it as more and more of my clients (not to mention my own
machines) migrate to 64-bit Windows.
So far my VFP 9 apps have installed and run with no issues on 64-bit Windows
without having to set the 64-bit installation architecture. One of these
apps installs comctl32.ocx using "DestDir: {sys}; Flags: onlyifdoesntexist
regserver sharedfile restartreplace". On the target machine, I find
comctl32.ocx in both System32 and SysWOW64, but I didn't check before
running the installer so I can't say if they're there as a result of the
installation or not, plus I have VFP 9 installed on that particular machine.
However, the client on whose machine I installed the same app is not
reporting any problems related to that control.
-----------------------
I'm still sorting my problem out. As I just wrote to Tracy, at least part of
this problem stems from a misunderstanding about having to deal with 2
different OCX files for the same MS Common Controls, which apparently didn't
show up before because all target machines to date already had COMCTL32.OCX
installed.
The remaining part is that once I do have COMCTL32.OCX in the INNO build, I
wonder if INNO will know to put it in sysWOW64 (or will Windows redirect
it?). Your experience is encouraging, but hard to tell if INNO did the right
thing or files were there all along.
Question on having COMCTL32.OCX included in your INNO build: do you recall
how you got the copy? I found a MS link posted by Matt Slay to get
COMCTLZP.EXE, but it's been removed by MS. Despite my positive experience
of just copying COMCTL32.OCX/DLL from my dev machine to customer's machine
and registering it, it makes me nervous. I'm sure it's in some MSI/MSM
files, but INNO doesn't support using them (sure would be nice, though)
Thanks,
Bill
