配置m2eclipse：“ Eclipse在JRE中运行，但需要JDK”

Question

After installed m2eclipse, I received a message saying that Eclipse needs to "run in a JDK" and to update the eclipse.ini to do so.

So I added this:

-vm
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_20

as the last two lines of the eclipse.ini file in my Eclipse installation directory.

However, I am again receiving this warning.

Did I not enter the command correctly?

Answer 1

The value must be the full absolute path to the Java executable, not just to the Java home directory.

-vm
C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jdk1.6.0_20\bin\javaw.exe

should work. source: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse.ini

Answer 2

It can be path to JDK if you're using command line. I usually create a shortcut to eclipse with extra parameter: -vm "path_to_jdk", it'll using jvm.dll(jvm.so) instead of java.exe,javaw.exe, so you won't see external process name java.exe in your process list.

Answer 3

Unbelievable, the solution to this problem has nothing to do with slashes, backslashes, quotes, spaces, jre, jdk, jvm, javaw, ....

The answer is that you have to have a line break between

-vm

and the path.

So in the eclipse.ini file:

THIS WILL NOT WORK:
-vm C:\java\jdk\bin\javaw.exe

BUT THIS WILL:
-vm
C:\java\jdk\bin\javaw.exe

在尝试了该线程中的所有建议之后，我唯一可以使用Eclipse Indigo的方法是使用带有-vm开关的快捷方式，如下所示：

"C:\Program Files\Eclipse Indigo 3.7M6\eclipse.exe" -vm C:\Progra~1\Java\jdk1.7.0\bin\
