Hybrid x32 and x64 setup

Hello,

I'am building a setup32.msi for x32 environment and a setup64.msi for x64 environment.

I want to create a setup.exe that would be able to detect the environment and launch the right msi.

Does anyone know how to manage it ?

I have look around Installshield, internet and this forum, but it is still not clear for me.
Can i do it with Installshield or should i code the launcher myself ?

Thanks for your help.

Regards,

Sam

you have different 'solutions' for your problem... but are you aware of the fact that the 32-bit installpackage is able to 'run' on 32-bit as on 64-bit.

According to me, If you create an msipackage with the name setupX64.msi and setupX86.msi... the user should be able to launch the correct msi according to his target OS... 😉
