Description javydreamercsw 2013-01-03 13:55:28 UTC 
This is an enhancement on top of issue #46833.

The mentioned issue was great but there are situations where you also need to react to the architecture on that OS as well.

So maybe another token like:

OpenIDE-Module-Requires: org.openide.modules.arch.32
OpenIDE-Module-Requires: org.openide.modules.arch.64

Combined with the tokens introduced with #46833 will provide all the tools to accomplish this.

The current list of tokens can be found here: http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/javadoc/org-openide-modules/org/openide/modules/doc-files/api.html#how-os-specific
Comment 1 Jesse Glick 2013-01-03 15:19:13 UTC 
Of course 32/64 should be e.g. x86/x86_64 since these are Intel-architecture-specific designations (as opposed to ARM, SPARC, etc.). Not sure what the most official architecture code names would be; look at what JNA uses, RPM & dpkg, GCC, etc.
Comment 2 Jaroslav Tulach 2013-01-10 08:12:21 UTC 
OK, can you prepare a patch?
Comment 3 Jaroslav Tulach 2013-03-26 11:22:24 UTC 
No patch, no fix.
