Processing 64bit on Mac (Read 1789 times)
Processing 64bit on Mac
Jun 16th, 2010, 2:38am
 
Hello!

I'm using Processing on a MacBook Pro, OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard machine.

When I open the TaskManager to analyze the processes, the PDE and it's apps are not in 64-bit-Mode even though I am using Java 6 64bit (given out by the terminal as java -version ...)

Is there any way to run them in 64-bit-mode?

THANKS a lot,

m. rothau

Processing in 64 bit does not play well with quicktime, which causes problems with some sketches.

On my machine (10.6), even unchecking 'run in 32 bit mode' as an option on the Processing.app does not actually get it to run as a 64 bit app. I do not know of a way to get it to run as a 64 bit app, short of modifying the source yourself and compiling it.
