Question Java question: 64bit version of SWT?

I know there are a few Java coders on here, so thought they might have a better clue of where to find what I'm looking for. I'm trying to find the Win64 version of SWT [some sort of GUI API/library I think]. I'm still wading through links, but there's a lot that's unfamiliar to me as I'm not a Java coder, which makes it harder to guess which links/URLs served up by Google might be relevant.

The reason I'm trying to get hold of it is that I've read that to get Azureus to run in 64 bit mode natively all I need to do is install the 64bit version of Java [which I've already found*], then install the normal Azureus package, & then replace the 32bit SWT installed with Azureus with the 64bit 1.

*I had saved a link to the page with the download link, but when I tried to use it just now it said I needed to log in, which is odd considering I didn't log in the first time. If anyone else wants it, go to this page, scroll down to where you see an entry for "Java Runtime Environment" & click the download link. On the next page, click the option to accept the license agreement, then when the page reloads, scroll to the bottom & you'll find a download link for the Win64 version of Java.

Note: AFAIK, the Win64 version doesn't come with a browser plugin, so it won't let you play Java games in 64bit browsers. From what I've read, anyone wanting to use Java apps/games in a browser will need to also have the normal 32bit/x86 version of Java installed as well & play them in a 32bit browser.
