Vista x64, Java 6U12 x64, Processing expert...
Feb 17th, 2009, 11:10pm  
Hi all,
I have a program that would love to use more than 1.5GB of RAM that I am currently allowed to use in the large Processing package that includes Java. I assume it includes the 32-bit version of Java and therefore causes this limit...

So, I downloaded Processing expert version, and Java 6 SDK Update 12 x64 and installed. When I click on the Processing executable, the title screen shows briefly and then exits. Here is my debug logfile from Processing...

CmdLine:
C:\processing-1.0.1-expert\processing.exe --l4j-debug
WOW64:

yes
Working dir:
C:\processing-1.0.1-expert\.
Bundled JRE:
java
Check launcher:
C:\processing-1.0.1-expert\java\bin\javaw.exe (n/a)
64-bit search:
SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Development Kit...
Match:

SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Development Kit\1.6
Match:

SOFTWARE\JavaSoft\Java Development Kit\1.6.0_12
Using 64-bit runtime.
Check launcher:
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_12\bin\javaw.exe (OK)
Add classpath:
lib\pde.jar
Add classpath:
lib\core.jar
Add classpath:
lib\jna.jar
Add classpath:
lib\ecj.jar
Add classpath:
lib\antlr.jar
Launcher:
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_12\bin\javaw.exe
Launcher args:
-Xms128m -Xmx128m -classpath "lib;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_12\lib\tools.jar;lib\pde.jar;lib\core.jar;lib\jna.jar;lib\ec
j.jar;lib\antlr.jar" processing.app.Base
Args length:
165/32768 chars
Exit code:
1

Any ideas? I appreciate it!

Starting Processing with the following call worked for me:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_11\bin\java.exe" -Xms128m -Xmx128m -classpath "lib;C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.6.0_11\lib\tools.jar;lib\pde.jar;lib\core.jar;lib\jna.jar;lib\ec
j.jar;lib\antlr.jar" processing.app.Base

Looks like Processing 1.0.3 does not get along with Java 64bit.

Regards,
Jens

> -Xms128m -Xmx128m

have you tried changing these? i don't know where they are set but they are the standard jvm memory settings flags.

My Env:
 Vista x64
 JDK6_10 x64
 Processing 1.0.9 (without java)

I susbtituted the jna.jar under <Processing dir>\lib with the JAR from

jna.dev.java.net/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=11911&expandFolder=11911&
folderID=7408

After that Processing seems work fine with x64 bit Java  Smiley
