Subject: [wix-users] Determine MSI bitness

Hi

What is the simplest way to tell if an MSI represents a 64-bit install? The best solution I've found so far is to scan the component table's attribute column and check if any component sets *msidbComponentAttributes64bit*

Is there a simpler way of doing this?

Thanks,
Jacques
