We are developing a web application on asp.net 2.0, and would like to
release a version for 32 bit and 64 bit platforms both,

my understanding is that we "the application developers" would not have
to create seperate releases for 32 bit and 64 bit platforms, as the .net
framework is different, and it would take care of the generating the
native image...

but i see an Itanium build option in the configuration view of vs2005 ,
can anyone clarify ?

thanks

You can limit which platform your code can run on by specifying x86, Itanium
or x64.
If you don't have any platform dependencies (for instance by calling native
code) just leave the default (anycpy) and your code will run on any
supported platform.

Are there performance benifits to specifying the platform in the build options?
