do i need to compile the source if i want to use application on 64-bit PC

Hello all,

I would like to install tomcat on 64-bit machine. do i need to build it from source or can i directly take the binary files provided in the website.

Is there any difference between building it from source and directly taking the jars which are i guess compiled on 32-bit machines.

Thanks in advance,

cheers

> There is some difference between 32 and 64 bit What do you mean by "some difference"? Obviously there is a difference but would you care to tell what it is rather than posting for the sake of posting?
