Just for the benefit of people reading this later, why do you need 64-bit Eclipse? – neon_overload May 9 '12 at 3:03

No. You can install 32-bit software on an x64 bit machine but you can not install x64 based software on a 32-bit machine.

This rule applies to all Operating Systems.

First, install 64 bit OS. Then go for 64 bit Eclipse. – Curious Apprentice May 9 '12 at 2:46
