问题
I downloaded fresh Eclipse CDT, added a C++ project, and after a few minutes eclipse crashed. It said "javaw.exe returned -1", and Eclipse crashes silently.
The .metadata/.log file sometimes contains nothing, and sometimes contains a few Java exception in the C/C++ indexer which certainly doesn't explain a silent crash.
How can I further debug this phenomena? I've no clue what to look for next.
I'm running the latest stable Eclipse CDT (7.0.1), with Windows 7 64bit, with the latest stable JDK (6u24).

On my machine, Windows 7, I have Eclipse in C:\Users\james\eclipse. In that folder, after crashes, I see error files like "hs_err_pid4308.log" that have lots of useful information.
For my crashes, it lead me to https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=333227 where I found a suggestion to add -XX:-UseCompressedOops to the end of my eclipse.ini file. The ini file for my 64 bit Windows 7 non-crashing Eclipse Helios Service Release 2 Build id: 20110301-1815 with CDT now looks like:
-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.1.1.R36x_v20101122_1400.jar
