For BBj 6.0 and later when a port is available in both 32- and 64-bit versions, both product files are packaged in the same, single download. The file name for the download will follow the 32-bit naming convention of 2### as published on the Platform Availability list. The file name for a 64-bit port without a 32-bit counterpart will follow the 64-bit naming convention of 6### as published on the Platform Availability list, indicating it is a 64-bit-only port. All ports containing 32- and 64-bit versions will default to the 32-bit installation. To proceed with a 64-bit installation, follow these easy steps:

  1. Verify the following are installed before installing BBj

    - You are running a 64-bit operating system

    - You have a 64-bit JVM installed on your computer

  2. Download BBj

  3. Run the installation wizard for BBj, and select the 64-bit JVM when prompted.

TIP: To determine the port id that is currently running, type print info(0,2) at the BBj command line. A ‘6###’ id indicates 64-bit port and a ‘2###’ indicates 32-bit port.
