swing - create 32 bit using 64 bit netbeans javapackager

Question

i have a java swing application made using

• netbeans (jdk1.8.0_111)
• jre1.8.0_111
• pavapckager to create exe file
• application has some library's

When i package i get a 64bit installer using javapackager which is expected. I am trying to create a 32bit installer. i have tried:

• installing 32 bit jre and jdk
• setting path to the 32bit version
• changing netbeans config to use: netbeans_jdkhome="C:Program Files (x86)Javajdk1.8.0_111"
• using : -Bruntime="C:Program Files (x86)Javajdk1.8.0_111jre" in the javapackager

How do i create a 32 bit Self-Contained Application Packaging using javapackager on a 64 bit windows system using netbeans

Answer 1

after restarting my pc everything started to work.

this is what i done:

• Install 32 bit jdk and jre
• In netbeans project add a new platform and choose the 32 bit version (restart pc)
• Install inno and set path.
• run javapackager specifing the 32 bit i.e javapackager -deploy -native exe -B systemWide=true -Bruntime="C:Program Files (x86)Javajdk1.8.0_111jre" -Bshort cutHint=true -outdir packages ...etc
• test with Exe64bitDetector
