The form entries that I was reading on the eclipse site seemed to indicate
that '#' was the character to use as ';' didn't work for everyone (maybe it
just causes the line to error out.

Mike,
Question: What does comment/uncomment mean in the eclipse.ini?
Answer..: If you open an editor that can edit an "*.ini" file, you can
comment out your code. Just like RDi 9.5 allows you to do with Alt + /
(Comment Line(s) . <grin>
I was using NotePad++, which puts a ";" in front of the statement. Which I
assume makes it a Comment-line, or won't process the statement.
Anyway, long story short, I restored the original ecliplse.ini, and my
issue went away....
<Big Smile>
Merry Christmas!

Just back from a wee vacation so my reply may be a bit late..
I don't believe that reducing the -Xms value would affect the exit code=1
issue. If it does then you don't have enough memory to run anything
anyway ;)
What does comment/uncomment mean in the eclipse.ini? In any case if adding
the -Xshareclasses:name=IBMSDP_%u has an effect then you likely have a
class that fails to restore from the class cache. This means that just
specifying a named cache will defer the problem until the next time the
class goes to be loaded from the cache. I would suggest replacing it with
-Xshareclasses:none to turn off the cache and likely avoid the issue
Mike
P.S. Research shows see that folks have found that # at the start of the
line for eclipse.ini in Windows does apparently work as a comment, cool.

Cool! I reset my eclipse.ini file and it worked!!! <Joy Joy>
Switch from "-Xms200m" to "-Xms100m" (Lowered the value)
Uncomment this line: "-Xshareclasses:name=IBMSDP_%u"...
And my RDI 9.5 starts up again! Yeah! No re-install!
PS. It was set back to the original values. <grin>

Thanks Buck!
I tried renaming my saved workspace, that did not seem to work. And IBM
support earlier had me switch around my eclipse.ini file, so I will now try
going to the fall back eclipse.ini.
Hope it works, I will re-install tonight... :(

Not that I know of, but I once managed to so completely corrupt my install
that it wouldn't start. That was 100% my own fault as I was mucking about
with internal config files AND working on a user command at the same time.
Anyway, what helped me avoid a re-install was a new workspace. Rename your
existing workspace and then create an empty one with the old name.
Then start RDi with -clean.
