Yes, the problem is due to the 64-bit mac. More specifically, it is
due to Java 6 on Leopard only running under the 64-bit x86_64
architecture. Java 6 simply doesn't have a 32-bit version on Leopard.
The library being called for, libObjCJava.dylib, is a required
library for Cocoa-Java. That library does not contain a 64-bit
version, only 32-bit versions (one for i386, one for ppc7400). The
fact that it tries to load that library tells me you are, in fact,
using Cocoa-Java, whether you realize this or not.
There is no code for x86_64 in libObjCJava.dylib, so it is impossible
to use libObjCJava.dylib with Java 6. When NSRuntime looks for an
x86_64 in libObjCJava.dylib, it doesn't find one, so it fails. There
is no way around this: you can't mix libraries of different
architectures in the same process, such as trying to use the i386
version under x86_64 Java 6.
Your options are:
1. Don't use Java 6; use Java 5, which has a 32-bit version.
2. Eliminate all dependencies on Cocoa-Java, which will then
remove the need for libObjCJava.dylib.
I don't know how practical either of these options are. If neither
one is practical, then your program can't run on Leopard.
