Modify the eclipse.ini to point to your jreJRE with by adding -vm and a reference to Java.
Two key thing to keep in mind,
- You can not mix 32-bit and 64-bit. For example, running Eclipse 32-bit and Java 64-bit will not work.
- Placement of the -vm option is very important. The -vm option must occur before the -vmargs option
Modify the eclipse.ini with by adding the following two lines,
| Code Block |
|---|
-vm
C:\apps\eclipse\jre1.6.0_18_32-bit\bin\javaw.exe |
