Right now I have 135 processes running of which 24 are 32bit X
Jon,
You don't need to be overly concerned with this, in my opinion.
The ooRexx code base builds on both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows and will
continue to build that way as long as your current machines are still
running.

No, David is definitely not suggesting adding all 32-bit support.

Just speaking for myself here:
I have upwards of 70 machines I am responsible for running ooRexx on 32Bit
processors (Celeron 430, Pentium 4, Northwood, Celeron M320, Barias,
Coppermine etc..).
They are all running Windows OSs (Mainly the now defunct XP).
Nearly half of them are tills, so expensiv
The bottom line is that any library or application that is 32 bit only
would not be usable in a 64 bit operating system. Perhaps the most
obvious library is the IBM DB2 Rexx libraries. These are 32 bit only (no
64 bit libraries exist) and would not work on a 64 bit OS, no matter
what version of ooR

I seem to recall reading something about an end of x86 coming to Ubuntu as well.
What ever point the distro vendors stop x86 support, obviously ooRexx will not
be
Well, if you are still on a 32-bit machine, you won't be able to upgrade to
those 64-bit versions, although I think you'll find that every Intel or AMD
machine produced in the last 10 years can actually handle a 64-bit install.
If is only when you install a 64-bit OS and are also forced to instal
Hi David
Could you just lay out for us what that would mean in terms of users still
on 32bit machines and also those reliant on extensions like rexx\sql,
rexxCurl etc.
thanks,

The short answer is no. The longer answer is that if you also load the
32 bit base libraries then the answer is yes. But the question is
whether or not those libraries will be available. I think the answer is
probably no on that one, but I could be wrong. The basic ide here is to
move to 64 bit and
Does the 64-bit format still support running 32-bit executables?

This is just something I am throwing out there with some information
added so everyone can think about it.
It looks like the new Red Hat EL 7.0 will only be available in x86_64
format (no i384/486/586/686 version). And I am hearing that Fedora may
follow that strategy with the Fedora21 release com
