Seems like I have missed something obvious, but I can’t figure out how I can include MIP SDK 2016 in my 32-bit application. The SDK installer only provides 64-bit, but you have the 32-bit redist installer and documetation is also talking about 32-bit binaries. The provided samples does not work in 32-bit even though there are build configurations for it.
What have I missed?
After the release of XProtect 2014, we default to 64-bit architecture, but do support building 32-bits using the MIP SDK.
More information in the article Processor architecture compatibility for the Milestone Integration Platform (MIP) SDK https://mymilestone.force.com/support/_ui/chatter/service/ChatterAnswersUi?id=kA2200000004TID
Thank you for answering, Michael.
However, it feels like the information in the other post is outdated. I don’t get any option to change the output folder nor platform during installation of the MIP SDK 2016.
I think you are right. So a knowledge base article update should be made.. Something like..
In general, the MIP SDK is compiled in both the 32 and 64-bit architectures. Applications developed using MIP SDK libraries can be compiled to, and used as both 32 and 64-bit.
In MIP SDK 2016 (10.0) and newer.
When installing, the MIP SDK is installed under Program Files\Milestone, all included files are 64-bit or “AnyCPU”.
If you want to develop 32-bit stand-alone applications you will need to download the 32-bit redistributable package of the MIP SDK. You will find the 32-bit redistributable in your partner portal on
www.milestonesys.com (login in MyMilestone using your Milestone Solution Partner login): https://www.milestonesys.com/my-milestone/msp/mip-sdk/
Replace the dependent files in your project with those from the 32-bit redistributable package of the MIP SDK.
When installing the MIP SDK plugin files (samples) are put under Program Files\Milestone\MIPPlugins, which means the plugin samples will automatically execute in the 64-bit Smart Client (and Management Client and 64-bit Event Server).
You can copy the folder to Program Files(x86)\Milestone\MIPPlugins, if you do the plugin samples will automatically execute in the 32-bit Smart Client (and Management Appplication and 32-bit Event Server).
Let me know if you feel there is still something missing..
Thank you. I think we sorted this out now. The MIP SDK works like a charm 
Using the 32-bit redist installer did the trick.
