B4J Question B4J 64 Bit: Does this produce different executable code?

[rgarnett1955]

Hi,

Does the new B4J 64 bit version produce different (64 bit) code or is it just the IDE is running with 64 Bit code?

Best regards

Exactly the same.

or is it just the IDE is running with 64 Bit code?

True.

Hi there...

...if you want different code... x86 ...you can achieve that by using Oracle Java for example jdk-7<version>-windows-i586-i.exe (and setup/config the b4j with the right bin)

Lately, I am using only 64bit OpenJava...

Exactly the same.

True.

I thought so as the Java engine is what determines the architecture. But I think the IDE is a bit faster than the 32 bit version, but that might be just a perception.

I'm pretty sure that I'm running 64 bit java. The programs run pretty quickly.
