System Requirements
-------------------
1. Java J2SE 1.5.0 or greater, and a platform that supports it
2. Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers (Ganymede or Europa), which is platform-specific
-- Get Eclipse from http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/
3. Geronimo server (2.0.x or 2.1.x)
-- Get a Geronimo server from http://geronimo.apache.org/downloads.html
Notes
-----
You will likely need to increase the default setting for maximum PermGen size
for your Eclipse installation (especially for Sun's JDK 1.5.0_x on the Windows
platform) to prevent "java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen" errors. From the
command line you can use:
eclipse -vmargs -Xms128m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=128m
Or you can edit your eclipse.ini file. An example is shown below but remember
that each argument has to be on seperate lines:
-vmargs
-Xms128m
-Xmx512m
-XX:MaxPermSize=128m
