----------------------------------

             Summary: Release jruby exe itself as 64-bit.
                 Key: JRUBY-6586
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-6586
             Project: JRuby
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Launcher, Windows
         Environment: 64-bit Windows
            Reporter: Jason Karns
            Priority: Minor


It would be great if the 64 bit release of jruby shipped with an actual 64-bit 
executable.

There is an issue with the current 64-bit setup specific to the ansicon utility 
for Windows (ansi console colors). The utility works for both 64 and 32-bit 
machines. However, it does not work with 64-bit jruby. The utility injects into 
the 64-bit command prompt, which then injects into the 32-bit jruby.exe. But 
because jruby.exe (32) then launches 64-bit JVM, the ansicon utility is stuck 
at 32 bit (because of the 32-bit jruby.exe) so it is unable to inject into the 
JVM.
