How to specify to the Java VM the -d32 parameter


I recently downloaded watij. on their website they say

Note: If you are running on a Mac you must add -d32 to your Java VM parameters.

I was wondering what the steps are to do this since they do not specify.


Solution

  • adding -d32 to vm parameters means, when you run your app:

    javac HelloWorld.java
    java HelloWorld
    

    Instead you do this:

    javac HelloWorld.java
    java -d32 HelloWorld
    

    It specifies that the program will run in 32bit architecture.

    To set JVM arguments from Eclipse, do this:
    1. Right click on the class you want to run.
    2. Click run configurations
    3. Go to arguments tab and write "-d32" under VM arguments text box.
