Hi,

I'd like to be able to get the platform x86 or x64 in the appveyor.yml build scripts.

Is there a way to do this? I've tried with several env variables but I was not able to find it.

Thanks in advanced.

    If you mean OS bitness then right now it's always running on Windows Server 2012 x64.
    That Platform setting is for MSBuild which can be x86, x64 or Any CPU.

    Well, if it's set on Build tab of project settings only (or in "build" section of appveyor.yml) you can get it from platform environment variable.

    Btw, there is x64 distro of Node.js is installed on build servers, if it helps.

    Thanks for the help. The actual nodejs x64 works fine it is when compiling the cpp addons that it seems some libraries are missing or something that fails.

    Again thanks for the quick response.
