What are the plans for updating Eclipse and IcedTea in F8? Are they going to
stay at their current releases, 3.3.0 and -b21, respectively, or will they get
updates? Of course, 3.3.1.1 and -b23 are already out.

I ask because I'm running into some crashes with 3.3.0 on -b21. I could try to
file bugs, but it seems like a waste of everyone's time to file bugs against old
releases.

I can't speak for IcedTea, but 3.3.1.1 would already be available in
Fedora if it weren't for stupid ppc64 build issues I think I'm
almost there, though.

PermGen issues? Try moving eclipse.ini from /usr/share/eclipse to
/usr/lib (or lib64)/eclipse and making it look something like this (the
last line is key):

-showsplash
org.eclipse.platform
-vmargs
-Xms40m
-Xmx256m
--XX:MaxPermSize=128m

HTH,

Andrew

I've added this to my eclipse launcher in the gnome panel

eclipse -vmargs -Xms512m -XX:PermSize=512m -XX:MaxPermSize=512m -Xmx512m

Since then, I've not seen anymore crashes nor problems of any other
kind.

Hope that helps,
Mario

Yeah, although your options are slightly different, eclipse.ini achieves
the same thing. The problem is that the defaults weren't being read
because they were in /usr/share/eclipse/eclipse.ini when they should
have been in /usr/lib{64}/eclipse/eclipse.ini. A forthcoming 3.3.1.1
update will fix the defaults.
