Is there any way to know TestComplete/TestExecute running in 64 bit or 32 Bit in scripts?

Do we have option in scripts to get TestComplete/TestExecute running in 64 bit or 32 Bit?   something like is64Bit()

    Now, I gotta multiple ways of doing this scenario right. I'm currently having below function.

     

    function is64BitClient()
{
      var tcprocess = Sys.WaitProcess("Test*te", 0);
      
      if(tcprocess.Exists)
      {
            if(tcprocess.ProcessType == "x64")
            {
                  return true;
            }
            else if(tcprocess.ProcessType == "x86")
            {
                  return false;
            }
            else
            {
                  throw "Not able to grab the process type";
            }
      }
      throw "Not able to find the TestComplete/TestExecute process";   
}

    Thanks everyone for your insights on this.

Helen, is it safe to assume that processor architecture always match application's bitness?

 

shankar_r:

This piece of code:

      var tcprocess = Utils.CreateStubObject();
     
      if(Sys.Process("TestComplete").Exists)
      {
            tcprocess = Sys.Process("TestComplete");
      }
      else if(Sys.Process("TestExecute").Exists)
      {
            tcprocess = Sys.Process("TestExecute");    
      }

can be replaced with this one (considering the fact that only one instance of TestComplete or TestExecute can exist in the system for the given user at the same time):

      var tcprocess = Sys.WaitProcess("Test*te", 0);

:)
