Description Silver Zachara CLA 2010-09-19 04:42:36 EDT
Hi dev,

I have used -consolelog parameter for eclipse start in WinXP 64bit.

Now I have installed Windows 7 64bit and when I try to run eclipse.exe -consolelog from e.g. command line, so any console log is opened, only main eclipse windows, I have tried eclipse.exe -console -debug, but again nothing.

How can I open eclipse console window?

Use eclipsec.exe.

This workforme on windows 7.  Does eclipsec.exe not work for you either?
