Hi, I recently I want to try eclipse so I downloaded
"eclipse-java-europa-win32-v3.3.zip" and extracted and ran the
eclipse.exe, the blue splash screen with eclipse europa shows up, then
disapears and eclipse is never loaded. Anyone know what is wrong?

Maybe you don't have a good JRE installed or visible. You need 1.4 at
least and many things will need 5.0. If you look in the workspace that
gets created (if it gets that far) and look in the .metadata/.log, there
will likely be clues there. You can use -data followed by a path to
point the workspace at a known location. You can use -debug to make the
..log more verbose.

Ok, I redownloaded again and now eclipse loads and works fine... strange.

Another question is if I decide to use it on my USB and work off at uni or
somewhere which already have JDK's installed for is there a command line
argument to assign the classpath? Well I figured that -data can specify
the workspace on to my USB but what about the classpath of the JDK.
cheers
