You can do the following to improve the runtime experience when using the Eclipse platform:

Increase performance of Eclipse on HP Integrity Server
If you have more than 2GB of RAM on your HP Integrity Server, you may want to increase the Java VM’s memory by using the -Xmx parameter on the Eclipse command line. The following is an example command line:

eclipse -vmargs -Xms256m -Xmx1024m -Xmn192m
Fix the Cut/Copy/Paste feature of the editor when you access the HP Integrity Server using Reflection X
The Cut/Copy/Paste feature of the editor does not work when you access the HP Integrity Server using Reflection X. To fix this feature, complete the following procedure:
1. Use latest version of Reflection X.
2. Go the Reflection X main window.
3. Click Settings > Display.
4. Uncheck Windows Clipboard owns selection.
5. Restart Reflection X.
Display the Eclipse GUI in more attractive colors
To modify the colors in the Eclispe GUI, create an .Xdefaults file in your home directory with the following content:

Eclipse*spacing:0
Eclipse*XmForm.background:#e8e7e3
Eclipse*XmForm.foreground:black
Eclipse*XmList.background:#e8e7e3
Eclipse*XmList.foreground:black
Eclipse*XmTextField.background:#e8e7e3
Eclipse*XmTextField.foreground:black
Eclipse*XmText.foreground:black
Eclipse*XmText.background:white
Eclipse*background:#d6d3ce
Eclipse*foreground:black

After creating the above file, issue the following command (your DISPLAY variable must be set prior to running the command):

/usr/bin/X11/xrdb <your home directory>/.Xdefaults
