Re: [Wrapper-user] getting hardware arch using just java

[David F. <dav...@zi...>]

If I want the wrapper scripts to detect the proper architecture  
native libs to use, and I want to minimize the installation size of  
my software, can I have my installer script install just the OS bits  
for a given OS instead of the whole delta-pack?

ie:

For os.name="Linux", could I have my Installer just copy the Linux  
scripts plus the following files?
lib/wrapper.jar
lib/libwrapper-linux-ppc-64.so
lib/libwrapper-linux-x86-32.so
lib/libwrapper-linux-x86-64.so

Thanks for clarifying,

David
