Why You Can’t Upgrade to Java 17 (32-bit)
No official 32-bit builds for Java 17 or newer are distributed by major vendors (Oracle, Eclipse Temurin, Azul, Amazon Corretto, etc.).
Eclipse and modern IDEs require a 64-bit JVM to enable Java 9+ language features.
Third-party community builds for 32-bit Java 17 aren’t maintained, making them unstable and unsupported.
Conclusion: You cannot run Java 17 in 32-bit mode on supported toolchains.
Recommended Migration PathOverall Strategy:-
Since Java 17 only comes in 64-bit, you will need:
A 64-bit operating system
A 64-bit JDK 17
A 64-bit Eclipse IDE (or another IDE like IntelliJ or VS Code)
