Hi,

After reading the DrDobbs articles i was interested in getting to know this
environment.
I installed the latest SDK. Unzipped it to my drive.
When i try to startup the IDE it gives an error and write a log ( see
attach )

( JRE is installed and i did not any path changes yet.)

What is wrong here ?

Thnx

Hi guy,

Eclipse 3.0+ requires Java 1.4.1 or higher to run. Your error log
reports you are running java.version=1.3.1_13. If you need to specify a
Java vm other than the default one on your system you can use the
command line argument -vm "path to java installation" when launching
eclipse.

Hi jeff,

I tried to lanch from the command line but same result.
I downloaded the necessary sun packages from the links in the FAQ.
Still same result. The errors are :

!MESSAGE Error registering XML parser services.

class not found..

!MESSAGE Startup error

class not found..

!MESSAGE Bundle
initial@reference:file:c:/eclipse/plugins/org.eclipse.core.runtime_3.1.0/
[1] was not resolved.

I checked the presence of that plugin and it's there.

I downloaded the 1_4_2 run time via above link and it works fine now.
The FAQ has to be updated:
-still point to version 1.3.
-command prompt -vm doens't work with 1.3
