There are several standard reasons for using 64-bit Java. Two principal ones:
1) your app needs more than 4GB of heap 2) your Java apps needs to run in 64-bit space. Here is IBM's description of this particular situation: "There are Java programs that have to run within the process of a 64-bit application or subsystem. An example of this occurs where a Stored Procedure is implemented using the Java platform within a database such as IBM’s DB2." Both of these circumstances seem pretty rare at the moment (vide the lack of response to your query and no further info from the original post-er), but I suspect they will become more common in due time. ---mr. bean Bruno Lowagie (iText) wrote: > > Hoskin, Gregory Martice wrote: >> I was sending this e-mail to find out if there is a 64-bit version of >> iText or iTextSharp that works with 64-bit systems? > > I honestly have no idea what this is about. > Why would a Java developer have to care about > the platform a JVM runs on? > br, > Bruno > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft > Defy all challenges.
