On 64-bit openSUSE Linux, can a 32-bit eclipse running with 32-bit JVM compile code for a 64-bit system?
Is this setup possible? (Installing and running eclipse/java 32-bit on a 64-bit system)
If you’re building pure Java, there’s no such thing as compiling for a particular architecture – Java bytecode is portable across CPU architectures and 32/64-bitness.
If you want to compile another language (such as C++) then it gets a bit harder. Likewise you may find problems if you try to build JNI wrappers for one architecture on another.
