switching to JRE6 running OE Architect in Eclipse 3.6

Hello,

i'm currently running OE Architect as plugin in Eclipse 3.6 (Helios) using JRE1.5 and OE 10.2B04 on Windows XP.

A new plugin i'd like to use needs JRE1.6, so I changed the -vm parameter, Eclipse starts, the splashscreen shows and starts loading plugins (including some oe-plugins).

After some plugins java crashes with the following error:

---------------------------

Java was started but returned exit code=1

---------------------------
OK  
---------------------------

I tried deinstalling the architect, then eclipse starts without any problems, but as soon as I install the "OpenEdge Architect 10.2.1.04" form Architect_repo the same error occurs again.

Increasing MaxPermSize and -Xmx didn't help either.

Is it possible to run Architect with jre6 at all? Any ideas how i could get it to work?

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers,
