[wtp-dev] WTP - PermGen space driving me crazy!

[Toriacht <shatner.william@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I normally use Eclipse Europa but upgraded to Ganymede because I wanted to
develop web services. I have a dual core laptop with 2Gs of Ram. I cant
develop anything because eclipse keeps crashing due to out of memory error
(PermGen)...pasted below.

I have edited my eclipse.ini file in attempt to overcome this but to no
avail... but I am no expert.. any help/ideas appreciated..my .ini file is
pasted below the error...


Thanks
T
