AFAIK Eclipse does not exclude the capability to work with other Java JRE versions for development work than the version of JRE eclipse is actually running on, I suspect Joachim is already aware of this. (BTW This is not something I have ever tried, like to get feedback if anyone has, I would also really like to know how the debugger handles this).
My experience is: reasonably well, as long as one stays within the same major version. With Europe, I couldn't properly debug 1.4 programs as long as 1.5 was used as Eclipse's JVM. I haven't tried that yet with Ganymede, maybe that's a nice thing to do over the weekend. But the main problem was not debugging, but some plugins. I remember that I had problems with the Maven2 plugin and that was a showstopper. :-(
Looks as if one needs to launch eclipse with the major version JRE one is working with which is very doable (have had to do explicitly define a JRE on load on a couple of occasions when an Eclipse configuration became corrupted). Fortunately, never had much need for Maven so far... - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.
