If you are using a bootstrapper anyway why not create both bitness MSIs and conditionally install the correct one?

Subject: Re: [WiX-users] How to mix 32bit driver and 64bit driver into samepackage? You cannot build a single MSI that deploys both the 32-bit and 64-bit version of the driver. As you discovered, you can only use one of the difxapp libraries in your build. This is due to the fact that the underlying SetupAPI calls in DIFx are not "thunked" in WOW64 (see here: http://download.microsoft.com/download/7/E/7/7E7662CF-CBEA-470B-A97E-CE7CE0D9 8DC2/32-64bit_install.docx), so the libraries must be made architecture-specific. One thing that I think you may be able to do (and I would love someone to jump in and confirm this, as I'm actually also trying to deploy both a 32-bit and 64-bit driver) is to generate two separate MSI installers, and then use torch to create a transform (essentially a diff) against the 32-bit installer. Embed the transform into the 32-bit installer, and then use a bootstrapper to conditionally apply the transform based on the architecture. ___________ Frank Jenner On Mon, Jun 25, 2012 at 2:52 AM, tzleon <tzl...@gmail.com> wrote: > I wish to mix 32bit driver and 64bit driver into same package, but the > problem is the two referenced library difxapp_x64 and difxapp_x85 > can't be imported into same package, otherwise, there is a error as below: > > "Error 1 Duplicate symbol 'CustomAction:MsiProcessDrivers' found. > This > typically means that an Id is duplicated.
