Hi David, For OutOfProcessEclipse, the ECLiPSe is run in a different process from the Java, so you should not need to use a "compatible" version (i.e. same word length) of Java as the ECLiPSe. I don't expect changing the settings of the Java VM arguments to make any difference (as I assume it only affects the Java process). The maximum amount of memory that can be allocated for an ECLiPSe process is determined by your OS, as you don't need to share the (virtual) memory space with another process as in EmbeddEclipse. If you are running a 32 bit Windows application, the limit can be relatively low (less than 2G), and I think this even applies if you are running on 64 bit Windows. I can well believe that Windows 7 has a larger allocation limit than XP. However, in order for an OutOfProcessEclipse to allocate more memory, you need to use EclipseEngineOptions to configure the stack sizes before spawning the ECLiPSe. You will most likely want to change the global stack size (eclipse.global-size). I am not that familiar with the Java interface, so I am not sure what will happen when the OutOfProcessEclipse runs out of memory. I expect the process to abort, and so you will not be able to communicate with it via the socket connections. This may be what you are seeing. As Thorsten said, ECLiPSe 6.1 has a 64 bit Windows version. We are not providing it for 6.0 because it involved quite extensive low-level changes to ECLiPSe, due to some quite significant differences in the way Mircosoft C represents integer types. ECLiPSe 6.1 is still not officially released yet because some new components are still in development, but if you stick to the parts that are available in ECLiPSe 6.0, you should be fine. You can allocate much larger stack sizes for the 64 bit version of ECLiPSe, but note that it will need more memory to run the same program when compared to 32 bit ECLiPSe. Most data will consume twice as much memory, except for floating point numbers (which actually uses slightly less memory).
