Enabling Jazz plugin for extended Eclipse applications.

Eclipse v3.6.3 and Jazz plugin v2.0.0.2

The Eclipse plugin is installed and access to RTC is working well within the standard Java perspectives and Teaming (Work Items) views.

Our application runs as a separate Eclipse instance. We select the project and Run As -> Eclipse Application.
 
Then, the Repository Connection made in the first Eclipse instance is not available in the second and another connection has to be made. During the connection, our the application freezes and generates an Out Of Memory error.

We do not have this problem in our Sandbox environment - RTC v3.0

I don't quite get what the question is. However problems might be realted to unsupported eclipse version ifit works in 3.x and not in 2.x.

Hi,

Your answer maybe the same, but I neglected to phrase the question, so trying again.

Given the Eclipse version and plugin version stated above, and the fact that the plugin does work in the first Eclipse instance, is there support for using the plugin when a Java Application (Runs as an Eclipse Application) is launched from within Eclipse?

Because the problem only appears in the Runtime instance, I'm wondering if some configuration or environment information is not being passed to application.

If you are getting an out of memory error when launching from Eclipse then you should try increasing the memory in the VM. This is done by adding VM arguments to the launch configuration. There are four parameters which affect heap size, try adding these to the VM arguments and see if the out of memory error is solved. -Xmx1024m -Xms512m -XX:PermSize=64M -XX:MaxPermSize=256m

Thanks Chris, increasing PermSize parameters solved the problem!

You launch RTC for debugging, see the Extensions workshop: https://jazz.net/library/article/1000. And Chris' answer might also e important.
