Hi Bob,
I have the same problem and found this very old post.
Would you please give me more detail on how to
have the compiler supply the default value for the Win64 attribute when
the InstallerPlatform .wixproj property is x64 or ia64/intel64 ?
Thanks!

From the Candle Task page in the documentation:
InstallerPlatform Optional string parameter.
Specifies the processor architecture for the package. Valid values are x86,
x64, and ia64. (Deprecated values include intel for x86 and intel64 for
ia64.) This is equivalent to the -arch switch in
Yeah, set the INSTALLPLATFORM property works.
I had thought the build platform set by configuration means the
INSTALLPLATFORM. It's interesting that if I didn't set this property, the
sys.BUILDARCH is still correct (as I'm using Debug | x64), but the win64 is
no.
Is there any reason that:
(1)
(1) It is common in many big shops that the build platform is standardized
servers which may have little to do with the actual target platform of the
product. Thus, there is often a need to be explicit.
(2) There are many 64-bit packages that install just one 64-bit component
and all the rest of
So basically I no longer need to include the Win64 attribute except in cases
where the value for a specific component has to be a specific value regardless
of what the Platform setting is?

Yes, but it's only valid when you need to specify a 32-bit component in

A while ago I raised an issue to do with a warning being generated when using a
variable for the Component Win64 attribute value. Below you'll see the an
excerpt of the logic I'm using so that in the case of all managed code
deliverables I can create one set of wix
