http://sablevm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=73

           Summary: Get Eclipse working
           Product: SableVM
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: default
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]

With current staging (after ProtectionDomain handling was fixed) Eclipse 3
"starts starting up".  SableVM works intensively for about 20 seconds,
then simply exits w/o any trace of what happened.  The behaviour is the
same with 2.0, 3.0.1 and 3.1M3.

Michael Koch says with current classpath we should get it at least start up
and show the main window.

Steve Augart, who has a lot of experience getting Eclipse working with JikesRVM
says they added the -X:vm:stackTraceOnExit and -X:vm:verboseStackTrace options
to actually see what exceptions are thrown.  (the latter option prints
stack trace every time a stack trace is constructed eg. on every exception
that is created)  We should probably do something similar to track what
actually the problem is.
