Hi Team- I am getting an error while launching MyEclipse (Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers 4.7.3) on windows 10 after the installation. Attached is the screenshot.
note- I was able to launch eclipse using Java 8. Yesterday I downloaded AdoptOpenJDK JDK with Hotspot 11.0.10+9 after which this issue is happening.
Need help

Venkateswari,

From your report, I understand that you are working with Eclipse IDE and not MyEclipseIDE.
Have you installed any Genuitec related plugins like CodeMix/Angular IDE or DevStyle to Eclipse?
Eclipse Oxygen (4.7.3) does not support Java 11. You should either downgrade the java version used to start Eclipse or switch to working with a newer version of Eclipse.

For further Eclipse related issues, please post to Eclipse forums as this forum is dedicated to MyEclipse and other Genuitec related products.
