Eclipse on Vista x64 - the official word [message #201647]

I have been running Eclipse 3.2.1 on Vista x64 without too many problems but
since upgrading to 3.3M6 I have encountered a lot of serious issues that
make it unusable. So is Eclipse supported on 64-bit Vista? I don't see
anywhere a download of a specific 64-bit Windows version but most 32-bit
Java apps run on this platform so it is not clear. If it is not supported,
when will it be? The 64-bit platform (especially for Vista) is growing in
popularity and should be supported.

Have you tried the new 3.3M6 x86/WPF early access? Might be worth a try.

Thanks for the tip - that works quite well. So what is WPF all about?

WPF is Microsoft's new graphical subsystem (.NET 3.0). Wikipedia has a pretty
good intro to WPF here:
