so I have some 3rd party native library that works only in 32 bit JVM across windows,osx,linux and I need to always enforce the java application to run in 32 bit JVM mode.
What about if the target system only has 64-bit JVM installed, would it be possible to force it to run the java application in 32 bit mode?
No.
The preconditions that you specified prohibit (okay, I’m precluding the bundle-the-JVM solution and install-the-JVM solution) the application from running in a 32-bit JRE. If you want to run your application in a 32-bit JVM, and your third party native library is only available as a 32-bit DLL, then you must use a 32-bit JVM. A 64-bit JVM cannot load the 32-bit library; there is no 32-bit mode to load such libraries.
