[OS] kali
when I use eclipse for luna, I got the message as below:
Version 1.6.0_13 of the JVM is not suitable for this product. Version: 1.7 or greater is required.
Solve it as below:
step_1: unpack eclipse
$ tar zxvf eclipse-standard-luna-R.tar.gz
step_2: go into the eclipse directory
$ cd eclipse
step_3: delete it‘s jre directory
$ rm -rf jre/
step_4: run the eclipse
./eclipse
it starts, then the bug has been fixed.
We will configure further for easily use. Steps as below.
step_1: move the eclipse to our pointed directory and change the privilege.
sudo mv eclipse /opt/ cd /opt sudo chown -R root:root eclipse sudo chmod -R +r eclipse sudo chmod +x `sudo find eclipse -type d`
step_6: then create an eclipse executable in my path
sudo touch /usr/bin/eclipse sudo chmod 755 /usr/bin/eclipse sudo nano /usr/bin/eclipse
With this contents
#!/bin/sh export ECLIPSE_HOME="/opt/eclipse" $ECLIPSE_HOME/eclipse $*
step_7: Then create a gnome menu item
sudo nano /usr/share/applications/eclipse.desktop
With this contents
[Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=Eclipse Comment=Eclipse IDE Exec=eclipse Icon=/opt/eclipse/icon.xpm Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=GNOME;Application;Development; StartupNotify=true
step_8: Configure
You now have a working eclipse.But run this command first to initialise the set up.
/opt/eclipse/eclipse -clean
Then from here on you can run from the menu item applications/programming/eclipse
