Sets the /platform value to AnyCPU32BitPreferred.
MSBuild is now included in Visual Studio instead of the .NET Framework. You can use MSBuild 12.0 side-by-side with versions previously deployed with the .NET Framework.For more information, see What's New in MSBuild 12.0.

Syntax
'Declaration
Function SetPlatformWith32BitPreference ( _
platformWith32BitPreference As String _
) As Boolean
bool SetPlatformWith32BitPreference(
string platformWith32BitPreference

abstract SetPlatformWith32BitPreference :
platformWith32BitPreference:string -> bool
function SetPlatformWith32BitPreference(
platformWith32BitPreference : String
) : boolean
Parameters
platformWith32BitPreference
Type: System.Stringtrue to set the /platform value to AnyCPU32BitPreferred; otherwise, false.
Return Value
Type: System.Boolean
true if the method was successful.
Remarks
If the Prefer32Bit property is set on the project, SetPlatformWith32BitPreference changes the /platform value from AnyCPU or the default value (nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) or "") to AnyCPU32BitPreferred. For more information, see /platform (C# Compiler Options).
If the /platform value is set to AnyCPU (/platform:AnyCPU), your application runs as a 64-bit process whenever possible and falls back to 32-bit for 32-bit-only systems. However, you might prefer an application to run as a 32-bit process because 64-bit applications may consume more memory. The AnyCPU32BitPreferred setting is similar to AnyCPU, except that its default action is to run applications in 32-bit mode on systems that support either mode. This setting accommodates future processors that may not fall back to 32-bit mode.
