I'm running Eclipse 3.3 on FreeBSD 7/i386 without any problems. I'm using subclipse (not from ports). The project I'm working on has more than 900000 lines of code and things like refactoring run very well. I'm not sure if my eclipse runs on java 5 or 6. I have them both installed. Java -version gives me 1.5. I wil use 1.6 tomorrow. Maybe eclipse on amd64 runs different. Eclipse has native c(++) parts. Ronald. -- Ronald Klop Amsterdam, The Netherlands
