I use this, seems to work fine:

Code:

is_64bits = sys.maxsize > 2**32

I use this, seems to work fine:

Code:

is_64bits = sys.maxsize > 2**32

I can confirm that, on my Win7 64bit with 32bit Python, is_64bits becomes True.

hmm.. on 32bit also working.

PHP Code:

>>> import sys
>>> sys.maxsize > 2**32
False
>>> sys.maxsize
2147483647
>>> print 0xffffffff
4294967295
>>> print 0xffffffff / 2
2147483647
>>> print 0xffffffff > 2**32
False

Tip: You could check how SpotiMC does this, it also needs to load different libraries (libspotify) based on platform.

PHP Code:

import struct, os, sys, platform
from __main__ import __addon_path__


def get_platform():
    if sys.platform.startswith('linux'):
        return 'linux'
    
    elif os.name == 'nt':
        return 'windows'
    
    #TODO: Identify ios and osx properly
    elif sys.platform == 'darwin':
        return 'osx'
    
    #Fail if platform cannot be determined
    else:
        raise OSError('Platform not supported')


def get_architecture():
    try:
        machine = platform.machine()
        
        #Some filtering...
        if machine.startswith('armv6'):
            return 'armv6'
        
        elif machine.startswith('i686'):
            return 'x86'
    
    except:
        return None


def add_library_path(path):
    #Build the full path and publish it
    full_path = os.path.join(__addon_path__, path)
    sys.path.append(full_path)


def set_library_paths(base_dir):
    platform_str = get_platform()
    arch_str = get_architecture()
    
    if platform_str == 'linux':
        if arch_str in(None, 'x86'):
            add_library_path(os.path.join(base_dir, 'linux/x86'))
        
        if arch_str in(None, 'x86_64'):
            add_library_path(os.path.join(base_dir, 'linux/x86_64'))
        
        if arch_str in(None, 'armv6'):
            add_library_path(os.path.join(base_dir, 'linux/armv6'))
    
    elif platform_str == 'windows':
        if arch_str in(None, 'x86'):
            add_library_path(os.path.join(base_dir, 'windows/x86'))
    
    elif platform_str == 'osx':
        add_library_path(os.path.join(base_dir, 'osx')) 


It is not ideal but it works for all libraries currently supported
