Java Classes compiling 64bit 32bit

Question

When compiling a Java-Class in a 32bit environment ( JDK ) does this class also run on a 64bit JRE ? Or do I have to compile the class in a 64bit JDK ?

The class does not have any JNI ( Java native Interface ).

regards

Java bytecode is internally always 32-bit. – Viliam Búr Apr 22 '13 at 07:47 — Viliam Búr, Apr 22 '13 at 07:47

yes, it does. the bytecode does NOT depend on the architecture of the environment (the clarification of JNI helped a lot in giving a clear answer).
