Tempest in a teapot. You do know that Oracle isn't the only provider of Java or OpenJDK, right? Options 1. You can buiild your own 32-bit x86 binary based on OpenJDK sources. 2. make AOO compile OK on 64 bit thus making AOO a 64-bit Windows app, able to use any 64-bit JRE (Oracle JRE, IBM JRE, Azul's Zulu JRE) 3. Have you asked Azul Systems if they can provide a 32-bit build? 4. Compile the Java code in AOO as native with Java 9's AOT compiler? http://openjdk.java.net/jeps/295 Just my $0.02 FC --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
