| − | Launching Eclipse 4.7 with Java 9: You have downloaded an early access version of Java 9 and would like to launch eclipse Oxygen 4.7 with this version. This page describes how to do this. Since Java 9 comes in a modularized form, some initial configuration needs to be done in the eclipse configuration file eclipse.ini.

| − | | + | |
| − | *Repeating that this page describes just how to use a Java 9 JDK to launch eclipse 4.7 - nothing more and nothing less.
| + | |
| − | *Java 9 features are not shipped standard with 4.7, you need to install that separately from [https://marketplace.eclipse.org/content/java-9-support-beta-oxygen MarketPlace]
| + | |
| − | *You need not launch eclipse with a Java 9 JDK to build Java 9 code in Eclipes; you can still launch with JDK 8, but use the patch for Java 9 from the above link.
| + | |
| − | *Java 9 is still in early access, and hence the options are yet to be stable. It is possible that the info given here will change over time. Currently verified with Java 9 EA 169.
