Can't install IDE on x86_64

Are there any plans to support the OpenClovis IDE on x86_64 platforms?

The latest OpenClovis release (3.0 beta) should install and run the IDE on 64-bit platforms. While it is not a 64-bit application we have changed the installer to install a 32-bit version of the JRE which is used by the IDE at runtime. If you are using the latest release and still have troubles on a 64-bit platform please post your hardware and OS information as well as the output of the installation so that we can look into the problem.

OK, after a closer look, the IDE is indeed installed on my x86_64 platform. My confusion arose because the installation script still warns it's not supported. Specifically, after prompting to create symbolic links for the binaries, the following is displayed:

[WARNING] OpenClovis IDE is not supported on this platform.

So it seems install.sh just needs to be cleaned up a little to get rid of this erroneous warning.

Thanks for your input on this. We will clean up the install script so that this warning will not be displayed.
