What do you mean it didn't work for you? Are you getting errors?

It works quite well. You have to be careful which versions you choose:
If you install a 64bit Eclipse you also have to install a 64bit JVM,
same with 32bit versions. The packages you can download from the
Eclipse website are usually 32bit.

There are a few quirks with Vista and Java/Eclipse: the most baffling
thing is that if you have SetPoint (mouse controller from Logitech)
running some Wizards and some tree views might be shown incomplete.
There are a few other programs with the same effect, do a search in
bugzilla for setpoint
( https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/buglist.cgi?query_format=speci fic&order=relevance+desc&bug_status=__all__&prod uct=&content=setpoint)
and follow the references. Most of this should be fixed in Ganymede.
