hi guys

i have a P4 3.2ghz , 1gb ram , and i work in fedora core 5
eclipse 3.2 myeclipse5.0

well when i use myeclipse , after when i work aprox , 15-30 minutes,i recieve this pretty message ,

title: Available Memory Is Low
content:
MyEclipse has detected that less than 5% of 64MB of Perm GEN (Non-heap memory) space remains

It is strongly recommended that you exit and restart Myeclipse with new virtual machine
memory parameters to increse this memory. Failure to do so can result in data loss

The recommended Eclipse memory parameters are:
eclipse.exe -vmargs -Xms128MB -Xms512M –
XX:PermSize=64M -XX:maxPermSize=128M

then, in any moment (5-10 minutes after of the message) eclipse3.2 doesnt response, all IDE death!!!!

and i must open again eclipse

pl,s, help how i can resolve this

thanks for advanced

You need to update the alias you use to launch MyEclipse as the dialog states and as is described in the FAQ here: http://www.myeclipseide.com/PNphpBB2+file-viewtopic-t-14136-highlight-memory.html

hi

thanks for the link

but i must use and work with jdk5 update 09
and the link says jdk 6 or series j2sdk 1.4.12

so, what should do i?

/usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.6.0/bin/java <—- is the default jvm or java distribution by linux right?

i am not use that , i have installed the 5_09 in other place, i guess that this irrelevant right?

thanks for advanced

Sorry for the delay in responding. You can use 1.5.0_09 to launch MyEclipse by specifying the -vm argument, so it will look like (for example):

eclipse -vm /usr/local/jdk1.5.0_09/bin/java

Also don’t forget to adjust your memory settings to the suggested ones:

hello rkalla

it works, the error message never appear again

i work with this sentence

./eclipse -vm /somepath/java/jdk1.5.0_09/bin/java -vmargs -Xms128M -Xmx512M -XX:PermSize=64M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M

i have 2 consults , after of a time, i can see that myeclipse related with js editor is turned slow , it depends of the values of ram???

other behaviour that i always have with the series 5.x , is when i use the editor for jsp files, each time that edit and try to save the jsp file, i recieve an error message
about null reference

Title:error
message: Save Failed : null

how i can fix this?

thanks for advanced

Yes, ram can effect it.

other behaviour that i always have with the series 5.x , is when i use the editor for jsp files, each time that edit and try to save the jsp file, i recieve an error message
about null reference

That was a bug that was fixed in 5.1.0, and should not be happening in 5.5.1, our newest release.

hi rkalla

thanks again for the reply

Yes, ram can effect it.

for a 1gb of ram in my pc,
in this sentence that i copied from your link
-vmargs -Xms128M -Xmx512M -XX:PermSize=64M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M
what new values can you suggest for my??

ok, i work with 5.0 , i will try with 5.1.1 , 5.5.1??? wooh very new

can you share a link to make an update from myeclipse versions???

thanks for advanced

[Riyad Kalla]

Sorry, but there is no direct upgrade path between 5.0 and 5.5 because of the big version jump and new required Eclipse platform.

The fastest way to get up and running with the new release is to go to our download section and download the latest All in One installer, then run it and be *sure* to install it to a new directory. Then run the new installation and open your existing workspac,e you should be able to continue working where you left off.

hello

again

thaks for your time

[Riyad Kalla]

Those default memory settings are very generous as it is, honestly I think an upgrade would do more for you than increasing those. Also note, since your machine only has 1GB of ram, increasing those memory arguments any more is going to *force* your machine to start swapping to disk which is going to bring your whole machine to a crawl, which is why I don’t wantt o suggest increased settings to you.
