[Wrapper-user] 32 bit wrapper with a 64 bit jvm

[Cory R. <cri...@th...>]

I have a couple of questions about 64 and 32 bit wrappers, for Windows & Linux.

 On a 64 bit OS, you can run a 64 bit or a 32 bit JVM. Does the
wrapper need to match the JVM (32 or 64 bits) or the OS (64 bits)?  In
particular, will the 32 bit linux wrapper run on a 64-bit linux box?

 We've done some testing here and it seems like things mostly work
when mixing the 32 bit wrapper with a 64 bit JVM. On Windows we don't
really notice any problems, although we haven't tested very
extensively. On Linux we see a message about the 32-64 bit word width
mismatch, but things do seem to start up. Can you explain what's going
on? Is it actually working or is there a major problem lurking here?
