How to determine 32 bit vs. 64 bit ASP.NET being used?

Question

I have an ASP.NET server that I do not have direct access to. How can I write a .NET application that will programmatically determine whether ASP.NET is running 32 bit vs. 64 bit?

Already answered here:

How do I tell if my application is running as a 32-bit or 64-bit application?

Answer 2

The easiest way is to do this:

Int32 addressWidth = IntPtr.Size * 8;

since IntPtr.Size is 4 bytes on 32-bit architecture and 8 bytes on 64-bit architecture.
