    Description

      Both m2eclipse and the "Local Processes" view in JMX Explorer require Eclipse to be configured to point to a JDK - this is a windows thing AFAIK (not a Mac at least, not sure if its also an issue for Linux yet).

      This is now fixed in 2.0.12.

      One proviso is that the Eclipse install needs to be configured with the VM option of the correct JDK for the installation (a requirement also of using m2eclipse too - you get a warning if this isn't done with m2eclipse as well).

      So users need to edit their eclipse.ini and add something like this (note a newline is required after the "-vm" I think)...

      Basically users need to download a JDK if they haven't done already (most developers will already have done this) and they need to edit their Eclipse.ini file (in their eclipse install directory) to add this at the front of the file (could be anywhere but front is easier & less error prone)

      -vm
      C:/jdk1.6.0_23/bin/javaw.exe
      

      I think care is also required between using the 32 bit jdk and 32 bit eclipse install - or using 64 bit jdk and 64 bit eclipse - mix the two and the Local Processes stuff doesn't work.
