Unable to build for windows 32-bits

I followed the instructions in the getting started video choosing an Angular Template project.

I have my demo project and I’m able to run it with dotnet electronize start and building it with dotnet electronize build /target win and the project builded runs fine.

But when I try to build using dotnet electronize build build /target custom win7-x86;win32 /electron-arch ia32 I get the following error:

Build Electron Application…

I found this to be useful in determining which values you have to pass to electronize build /custom...

https://docs.microsoft.com/it-it/dotnet/core/rid-catalog

By looking at the electronize tool source code, you can see that the first value means the dotnet build Runtime Id, while hte second value represents electron builder architecture

case "custom":
                    var splittedSpecified = specifiedPlatfromFromCustom.Split(';');
                    netCorePublishRid = splittedSpecified[0];
                    electronPackerPlatform = splittedSpecified[1];

I succeded in building a 32 bit version by means of electronize.exe build /target custom win-x86;win /dotnet-configuration Debug /electron-arch ia32

Just escape the semicolon if you are using powershell like this: “dotnet electronize build build /target custom win7-x86`;win32 /electron-arch ia32”
