32bits or 64bits ?

Sébastien N — Tue, 19 Aug 2003 12:19:49 GMT

Hi,

How to know if a running program is built in a 32 or in a 64 bits mode (my JVM) ?

Thanx.

Hi,

Use file,

/usr/local/bin# file lsof
lsof: ELF-64 executable object file - PA-RISC 2.0 (LP64)

A running program?? I think you can find out if the executable support 64bit by issuing:
# file

Thanx, but it doesn't work :
file /jdk131/bin/java
/jdk131/bin/java: commands text

?

S???stien N,

If the 'file' command returns 'commands text', then it is a shell script (or config file) and not a compiled program. A shell script is readable, and you could determine if it it checks for 32 or 64 bit before running a(probable) binary.

Hope this helps!

open the java file to find out which executable invoking:
for example, you should find a 'prog=$JAVA_HOME/bin/PA_RISC/${THREADS_TYPE}/${progname}' statement.
Try to check the $program

You are right : java is a shell file.

So I tried :
file /jdk131/bin/PA_RISC2.0/native_threads/java

and the answer :
/jdk131/bin/PA_RISC2.0/native_threads/java: PA-RISC2.0 executable dynamically linked -not stripped

What does that mean (32 or 64bits) ?

PA-RISC 2.0 is only 32 bit binary.

To be 64bit it must say;

ELF-64 executable object file - PA-RISC 2.0 (LP64)

(ie. its got to say ELF-64 as well as PA-RISC 2.0)

It is a 32-bit executable.

Thanx everybody.

Do you know where download JDK 1.3.1 for HP-UX 11i (64bits) ?

None of the HP SDK or RTE Java kits come with 64bit binaries for Java. I dont think HP do them for PA-RISC.

Re: 32bits or 64bits ?

Sébastien N — Tue, 19 Aug 2003 14:33:08 GMT

64bits only available with SDK 1.4 :-(

Thanx.

Were running the latest Java SDK (1.4.1.03) and the java binaries are all compiled as PA-RISC 1.1 (32bit). There are no 64bit binaries for PA-RISC (not in /opt/java/1.4/bin).

Stephan,

Look in /opt/java1.4/bin/PA_RISC2.0W/java and
/opt/java1.4/jre/bin/PA_RISC2.0W/java for the 64-bit executeables.
