Fine Tim. I was looking at
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=92250 especially the comments
related to eclipse.ini and it seems: We can't add -XX:MaxPermSize to
eclipse.ini because it is not a supported standard VM argument - other VMs
such as JRockit, GCJ, IBM, will fail to start when provided with that
argument.

Thanks,
Shiva

Hi Shiva, thanks for the information. I'm not sure I feel comfortable modifying

Re: [Discuss] Release Geronimo Eclipse Plugin 2.0.0 (RC3)

2007-09-17 Thread Shiva Kumar H R
Some more observations while testing Geronimo Eclipse Plugin 2.0.0 (RC3):
a) When defining a new server, Apache Geronimo v1.2 Server doesn't get
listed in the list of available servers.

b) Looks like WTP 2.0.1RC2 has solved the problem reported in
GERONIMODEVTOOLS-209 if the HelloWorld WAR's geronimo-web.xml uses
1.1Geronimo schemas. However, if
geronimo-web.xml is edited to use 2.0 version of Geronimo schemas, then
Run As - Run on Server won't open internal browser.

c) Another very important thing related to eclipse.ini settings.
The default contents of eclipse.ini is shown below:
-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
--launcher.XXMaxPermSize
256m
-vmargs
-Xms40m
-Xmx256m

This is *really* messy. With the default provided settings as above, my
Eclipse crashed about 7 times! with java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen
space errors and I was not at all able to complete the steps mentioned in
http://cwiki.apache.org/geronimo/java-ee-50-app-development-on-geronimo-simplified-using-eclipse.html

However, as suggested by Tim, I created a shortcut to eclipse.exe as below
E:\IDEs\eclipse3.3.1_WTP2.0.1RC2_gep2.0rc3\eclipse.exe -vmargs -Xms256m

them strongly to users in Release Notes as well as in 
http://people.apache.org/~mcconne/releases/RC3/Geronimo_Eclipse_Plugin_2.0.0_Instructions-RC3.txt

If we can also update

 Need to mention package name as Eclipse Classic to avoid confusions as
 raised in RC2 voting thread. Also, shouldn't the version be changed to
 3.3.1? Please see
 http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/development/freeze_plan_3_3_1.html
 So, this could look something like:
 1 -- Eclipse 3.3.1 (Eclipse Classic package of Europa distribution),
 which is platform specific
  http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/development/freeze_plan_3_3_1.html
 2) 3 -- Data Tools Platform (DTP) 1.5
 Should be 3 -- Data Tools Platform (DTP) 1.5.1

 3) 4 -- Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) 2.3
 Should be 4 -- Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) 2.3.1
 http://www.eclipse.org/modeling/emf/downloads/?project= lists
 emf-sdo-xsd-SDK-M200709120130.zip under 2.3.1 Maintenance Builds

 4) 5 -- Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) 3.3
 Should be 5 -- Graphical Editing Framework (GEF) 3.3.1
 http://download.eclipse.org/tools/gef/downloads/index.php lists
 GEF-SDK-M20070814-1555.zip under 3.3.1 Stream Maintenance Builds

 5) That is why this ant script downloads and installs the WTP 2.0.1 RC1
 artifacts.
 Should be:
 That is why this ant script downloads and installs the WTP 2.0.1 RC2
 artifacts.

Hi Ted, yes I shall do that now--it never occurred to me that anyone would want 
to use 1.0 and 1.1

I could not download a 1.1 server.  Tim, can you put the 1.0 and 1.1
runtimes on the staging site?  I presume they'll also be on the
production site.

With that change, +1
