I don't think it is just a memory issue, although that does improve it (I went up as far a 2Gb). I have found that Flex design view is quite unstable and mixing that and J2EE perspective basically doesn't work in FB2. I can reliably crash Eclipse with a single file open. I am in the practice of closing and re-starting Eclipse when I want to switch perspectives. I've learnt to live with it, but now you remind me, it is pretty bad.
There's another reliable crash which is doing any auto-complete on a new .as file (not a class, just a .as file). I can get Eclipse to bomb horribly and lose all my perspectves with that one. I think that the Java/J2EE perspectives are much better (feature-wise) and more mature and stable. Given where Eclipse came from its not surprising really. I'm hoping that FB will have been tidied up in v3 (otherwise I'll resent paying for an upgrade). --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Maciek Sakrejda <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Give Eclipse more memory: edit eclipse.ini and up the limits. > > Mine is currently > > -vmargs > -Xms128m > -Xmx512m > -XX:PermSize=128M > -XX:MaxPermSize=256M > > I can't tell you exactly what these mean (or if they're all necessary) > since I forgot the meanings of the various options since I changed them, > but a list archives (or google) search should give you more details. > > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Amit Gupta <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Reply-To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com > To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com > Subject: [flexcoders] Eclipse Crashes in Flex Development perspective > Date: Thu, 14 Feb 2008 20:53:18 -0000 > > Hello, > > I have Eclipse 3.2 with Flex builder 2 installed on it.
