One installer for 32bit and 64bit. Is it possible?
Hi,
I would like to create one installer to contain 32bit and 64bit components and for this to run on both 32bit and 64bit Windows.
Is this possible?
If it is possible can you please outline how to go about this. Thanks.
If it is not possible I have noticed that there are ways to generate two installers based on release flags.
A little bit more background:
Thanks
Damian

A little bit more background:
- I would want to install both the 32bit & 64bit programs and build components on a x64 Windows OS. Only the x64 programs would be accessible via the Start menu.
- On 32bit I would like to install only the 32bit programs but also install the x86 and x64 build components. Only the x86 programs would be accessible via the Start menu.
Thanks
Damian
