Hi to all,

this is the first time I write here and I apologize if my English is not
so good. Anyway, I hope it is good enough to say whatever I'm going to
say :)

I'm running Eclipse Europe C/C++ on Debian 4.0r3 Etch for AMD64. I
installed the sun-java5-jre but I'm not sure all is correctly configured.

I experience problems when debugging: it says it can't find the source
code and I get errors. I read a lot on this issue and it seems to be
related to a wrong java configuration.

So I ask you: how to check that Eclipse uses the java5-jre installed?

By the way, I'd use Eclipse to develop code for AVR: is this the right
place to ask questions about?

Thanks in advance.

Checking the JRE is easy: In Eclipse click on 'Help' > 'About Eclipse
Platform' > 'Configuration Details'.

You'll probably find more thing than you want, but if you scroll down you
should see Java properties like 'java.version' or other VM specific
configuration parameters that are used in your Eclipse instance.

If you want to be really sure about the JVM that is used to run Eclipse,
start it with '-vm /path/to/your/bin/java'

You should also look into which version/brand of Java's other tools are
in use: please look at the /etc/alternatives in Debian
and make sure they all point to the same JVM version/brand. Use
"update-java-alternatives --set java-1.5.0-sun"
to use a comfull Sun Java JVM.
