(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 the application is 32-bit.

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) the build platform need to be different with the INSTALLPLATFORM? (2) there are cases that the BUILDARCH is x64 but the win64 need to be false (by default) for package, components, ca, registrykey...
