JVM terminated. Exit code = -1

Question

I\'ve been using Eclipse for some time already, and I didn\'t have any problems with it. However, when I tried to generate some javadoc, I found that I didn\'t have the SDK

Answer 1

First Approach:

1. I added below lines in eclipse.ini

   -vm C:\Program Files(x86)\Java\jre\bin\java.exe
   

2. Modified below line in eclipse.ini (changed to 1.6.0_37 from 1.5),

   -Dosgi.requiredJavaVersion=1.6.0_37
   

3. Deleted JAVA_HOME from environment variables which was pointing to c:\jdk1.6

Now Eclipse is working fine.

Second Approach:

Another way - don't add below line in Eclipse and only modify JAVA_HOME to point to C:\Program Files(x86)\Java\jre,

-vm C:\Program Files(x86)\Java\jre\bin\java.exe

Eclipse should work now.
