Converting NameMapping to "new" application

We're currently working on migrating from 32 to 64, and I'm trying to set up TC for the 64 bit version. The mapping for everything seems to have been only for the 32 bit application though, and 64 is...

    Some suggestions to go along with what cunderw  mentions:

     

    1) Look into using wildcards if possible to mask out portions of the properties so that they can be identified in both 32 and 64 bit.

    2) Alternatively, look into "conditional mapping" where you can use IF/AND/OR logic in the property selections.

What does the mapping properties look like for your objects? I'm guessing there is a property in there that changes between the two versions that could be adjusted to work with both.

    Wildcards: Looks like code changes, which might be the more reasonable route for future maintenence, but the differences in WndClass are too broad and might pick up too much

     

    Conditional Mapping: This might work, is there a way to do this in bulk, or will I have to go through them one by one? I can go through the (I believe it was-) JSON file and simply place a conditional everytime I see a match 

     

    Thank you for letting me know about these!
