Body
In .NET/Windows there is the <code>PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE</code> environment variable which identifies whether a running process is x32, x64 or IA64. There's also the <a href="http://www.pinvoke.net/default.aspx/kernel32.GetNativeSystemInfo" rel="nofollow"><code>GetNativeSystemInfo</code></a> API method which can tell whether Windows OS supports x86-64. Is it true that there always will be an x64 version of .NET Framework as long as x86 version available on Windows x64? Or are there any means to detect what platforms are supported by the .NET installation on the machine? What about Mono/Linux or other non-Microsoft implementations? Can the x86 version of Mono run on x86-64 Linux? How do I detect (programmatically) what platforms are supported by a Mono installation? Added 16.11.2010 I’m developing a kind of plugin system (ok, I know there is <code>AddIns</code> system but it is too flooded with pipeline assemblies). What I want to do is to find out what kinds of assemblies can be loaded in the running process (represented by a platform neutral assembly) and what assembly architectures can be executed by the system in the isolated process. The solution to create test assemblies for every architecture in the system and try to launch it does not look elegant.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
