Hi,
I'm not sure about my thoughts here. 
Please correct if my understanding is wrong.

I tried installing tomcat 32 bit on a 64 bit JVM but it didnt work.

I tried following on the mini how to install tomcat on 64 bit OS but didnt
succeed.

What i found on internet is we need 64 bit executable for tomcat to run to
64 bit jvm and 64 bit OS <offcourse>

Few Questions : 
1) Can i host 32 bit compiled war file on 64 bit Tomcat / JVM ? <If my
tomcat installation succeeds>
2) What if i recompile the war on 64 bit jvm and host it on 64 bit Tomcat?
I've read that the size of the primitive datatypes in 64 bit is different,
so if i use Java web start and launch the application from remote machine
<32 bit> using JNLP, will it work on that 32 bit machine? having 64 bit
machine compiled jars?

If I host the 32 bit compiled war on 64 bit Tomcat / 64 bit JVM,
What am i gonna miss/gain? except the lot of heap memory

The picture is still not clear, Can you throw some light on this?

help appreciated. 

Swapnil
