UpgradeRuntimeTo64bit Parameter (NFS 61726)
The [JadeAppServer] section only of the JADE initialization file on each application server can now contain the UpgradeRuntimeTo64bit parameter, which defaults to false, indicating that the normal thin client upgrade process occurs. The UpgradeRuntimeTo64bit parameter is read when the application server starts up. Set this parameter to true to allow the downloading of 64‑bit binaries to clients that are running 32‑bit JADE binaries on a 64‑bit operating system (WoW64). When this parameter is true and a thin client connects to the application server, if the client is running 32‑bit binaries on a 64‑bit operating system, a download of the JADE 64‑bit binaries will occur instead of 32‑bit binaries.
For the UpgradeRuntimeTo64bit parameter to take effect, the presentation client must first be upgraded with the version of JADE that supports this parameter. The previous thin client versions do not pass their operating system type in the initial handshake that is used to determine whether a download may be required. As a result, to get clients upgraded to 64‑bit requires two downloads: one to update to JADE 7.1, and a second to upgrade to 64‑bit.
