  Looks like the issue is in two places.

  1. the installer doesn't download the 64 bit version of SWT, that'll need to happen.
     
  2. swt/lib/swt.rb:11 - this function needs to also append 64 to the file name. jruby 1.6 on windows returns amd64, MRI 1.8.7 returns i686 (but I'm pretty sure this code runs from jruby land)

  I'll ask Dan to upload the win32-x86_64 jar next time I see him on IRC.

  SWT jar for win32-x86_64 is available from http://bit.ly/ik30PB

  Installer script will expect it at:

  http://redcar.s3.amazonaws.com/swt/win3264.jar

  (Sorry for the odd name, but it's either this, rename the other OS jars or make SWT.jar_path uglier. This seems like the least of the 3 evils)

  Looks like the xulrunner also has issues. Looking at those now.

  First fix is available at https://github.com/matschaffer/redcar/tree/bug/461-windows64-bit

  Still trying to figure out what to do about xulrunner.

  So things just got interesting. There is no official 64 bit XulRunner for windows. You have to get them from this site:

  http://wiki.mozilla-x86-64.com/Download

  As a result the 64 bit SWT for windows doesn't ship with the required bits to even link with xulrunner. See https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=199660 for info there.

  At this point, I think our best bet may be to recommend people run redcar on windows under a 32 bit JRE.

  Confirmed: Redcar and HTML views work fine on 32bit JRE running on 64bit Windows 7

  For full 64bit windows support, I think we'd best wait for Mozilla and the Eclipse Foundation to work this out.

  • Tag set to “installation”

  just got this, too:

  C:/redcar/lib/redcar.rb:149:in `load_threaded': uninitialized constant Redcar::Top (NameError)

  I guess the current fix is to uninstall 64bit JRE and replace with 32bit?

  Yep. Runs fine with 32-bit jre on 64-bit windows, so I think that's our only choice until Mozilla/Eclipse get their game in order.
