Eclipse 3.0 M8 throws an Out of memory error right at the startup. How do I attach the log file
Created attachment 9541 [details] Log file for the bug The log file has been attached for the out of memory error that is being thrown in Eclipse 3.0 M8
You can increase the amount of available memory in Eclipse from the command line: eclipse -vmargs -Xmx256M Moving to JDT core as the OutOfMemoryError is occurring in the indexer.
If you don't use -Xmx option, you have only 64M of RAM. This is clearly not enough to run Eclipse.
Kent: can we make the crash recovery scenario less memory intensive ?
Its not the crash recovery that is running out of memory... its the initial attempt to index rt.jar. Please change your VM settings as suggested.
