I cannot debug a java aplication inside eclipse. I'm using: Windows 7 64bit Java 6_45 64 bit (tried JDK and JRE) Eclipse Kepler 64 bit

eclipse always hangs while saying Constructing command line..

I found this (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=195185) that appears to closed for a long time. This is the exact same behavior I'm experiencing, but cannot figure out the cause. Any help?

Thanks in advance

  • Not exactly aware of the numbers. But Kepler requires more RAM. What your RAM size? Maybe someone can correct me if I am wrong. Commented Jan 2, 2014 at 17:12
  • Just to rule these out: did you try rebooting your computer? Reinstalling Eclipse? Commented Jan 2, 2014 at 17:14
  • Have a look at .. /workspace/.metadata/.log. Commented Jan 2, 2014 at 17:32
  • I tried with several eclipse versions, several workspaces, JDK, JRE. And yes, I rebooted the computer several times... :( gotta check metadata log Commented Jan 6, 2014 at 16:16
  • Finally I could go back to this. I found some warning messages related to GIT. So I reacted to those warnings, cleaned the error log console and restarted eclipse. No log what so ever i s present now. After eclipse hangs and I shut it down, eclipse process keeps running on background and I have to kill it manually. This is to weird.

So, after a few more experiments and reading the bug report again, I changed the Installed JRE from JDK to JRE and now it works. Though it should work with JDK... I can now work, so I'll consider this answered.

lifesaver. dont know why the JDK didnt work. but changing the build path to use JRE works like a charm.
