MyEclipse: [Closed] Eclipse 3.2 Available? MyEclipse Support for 3.2?

Post subject: [Closed] Eclipse 3.2 Available? MyEclipse Support for 3.2?

I've worked with a copy of Eclipse 3.2 (one of the development versions). I'm looking forward to its stable release because it has a nice garbage collecting feature across the whole IDE (as opposed to MyEclipse's GC function, which I'm not sure how far it does a GC). Do you all know when the 3.2 version is scheduled for GA release? When it does come out, how long afterwards will MyEclipse have a workbench that's compatible?

See, my problem is that when I run 3-4 different types of files using different editors (for example, JSP, Java, XML, SQL), my CPU goes through the roof even when I set the max heap size to 256mx. Basically, from the forums on the Eclipse website, they tell ya "Well.... good luck with that!" The impression I got was that it's a known bug, but there's not a lot you can do about it except maybe wait until the next release.

Any suggestions?

It calls System.gc(), so it will be across the JVM.

Last couple of days of June, 2006

At the same instant or within a very few days is the plan.

For MyEclipse, we recommend the following commandline arguments:
eclipse.exe -vmargs -Xms128m -Xmx512m -XX:PermSize=64M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M

These settings usually will take care of the issues you're seeing.

June, both are scheduled for June. We are planning on releasing MyEclipse 5.0 in line with Eclipse 3.2.
