Could be nice to have a os.detected.arch.bitness variable

[jflecomte]

I had a case where I needed to know the "bitness" of the OS (32 or 64 bits). I used ${os.detected.arch}, but I was not interested in the architecture part (x86, itanium, etc.), I only needed the bitness part. So it would be nice to have a ${os.detected.arch.bitness} variable containing only the bitness part of ${os.detected.arch}.

Sounds like a good idea. Let me try to find some spare time.

This would be a great feature. Is this still being worked on?

[trustin]

Couldn't find spare time for this. Pull request appreciated.

@trustin please review PR #41

@trustin Please kindly see my pull request. :-)

@trustin
I think I might write my own native lib loader. :-(

I'm really sorry I forgot about your pull request. Let me take a look this week. Is it still valid?

[bmarwell]

Yes, it is. But: I created a different type of build right now, so I might not actually use it.
