Windows 7 Platform ID

[Francis Nugent Dixon]

Hi from Paris,

I ran one of my rev stacks on a PC under Windows 7,
and it did not find a "win32" platform ID.

Would it by chance be "Win64" ?

Anybody know ?

My understanding is that Windows 7 will ship in 32 bit and 64 bit
versions.  I would tend to assume you could follow MS's KB article on
checking how many bits you have for Windows 7 the same way you could do
for other platforms:  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/827218.

I hit the send button a little premature...

Since Windows 7 has not shipped, perhaps Revolution has not been updated to report Win32?  I ask this since the Dictionary for 3.5 says all versions of Windows should report Win32 for any post 3.1 version.  I do wonder if there would be a need to distinguish between 32bit and 64bit Windows?
