Hi Folks,

I'm having some problems starting eclipse 3.0 M[3-7] on Windows XP Prof
with JRE 1.3.1_10. I always get the error screen

JVM terminated. Exit code=1
C:\windows\system32\javaw.exe
-cp C:\programme\eclipse-3.0_M6\startup.jar org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main
-os win32
-ws win32
-arch x86
-showsplash [...]

If I start eclipse manually via

java -cp startup.jar org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main from the eclipde dir I
get the following error

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalAccessError: try to access
method java.io.FileOutputStream.<init>(Ljava/io/File;Z)V from class
org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main
at org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main.isAlreadyRunning(Main.java:14 43)
at org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main.main(Main.java:577)

With eclipse 2.1.2 evrything is fine.
Please don't suggest using jre 1.4.x, it is not possible in my case.

Any ideas?

Regards

Frank

Eclipse 3.0 requires JDK 1.4.x. if you need to use JDK 1.3 you'll have
use an eclipse 2.1.x version.

Interesting replies. Perhaps 3.0 should check for the proper runtime
before it dies? Is this bug/enhancement already filed and just not
implemented yet?

Please not!

kaffe is getting ready to run eclipse and I don't want to do a patch
to work around this.

I know that eclipse.org states, that it is 1.4 only, but as long as
SUNs JVMs are considered non-free, debian (and other distros) will try
to get eclipse running on free replacements. Any 'check', which ensures
that it is a sun-derived 1.4 JVM running eclipse will srew this effort.

I don't mind a 'post error' check, but please not before trying.

Thanks!

Jan, debian eclipse maintainer

Checking for 'java.specification.version' should not be VM dependent.

Follow bug 44814 for more information.
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=44814

We don't do specific VM implementation checks, only checks against
version numbers. Do you see problems doing this against the free VMs
that you mention?

Also, there is code that essentially says "if we can't figure out what
version the VM is, then try and run and let it fail later if it is not
what we need".

Due to bugs in 1.4.0 and 1.4.1, you really need to have the latest 1.4.2 (or
later) you can find. For example, see:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=52054

(1.5.0 beta is running ok for me so far; but I just installed it today.
1.4.2_03 is known to be good on Windows).
