Neon: how to run on jdk9?

Question

Just started playing with jdk9 - and kind-of stuck right at the beginning:

• downloaded and extracted eclipse-java-neon-m4a-win32
• installed java 9 supp

Answer 1

I have the same error I find solution from Configure Eclipse for Java 9

Following edit you have to do in eclipse.ini file

1. -vm C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-9\bin\javaw.exe
2. --add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM

And It will solve your problem. Your eclipse.ini file look like following:

--launcher.appendVmargs
-vm
C:\Program Files\Java\jdk-9\bin\javaw.exe
-vmargs
-Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.8
--add-modules=ALL-SYSTEM
