Change heap size for Eclipse installed as a snap package
0
I'm running Kubuntu 18.04.1 and have Eclipse installed as a snap package. I want to change the values of Xms and Xmx, but I can't edit /snap/eclipse/29/eclipse.ini because it is read-only. Is there a workaround?

Do you actually want to change the values in the eclipse.ini which change the settings for Eclipse itself - or do you want to change the settings for Java programs you are running (which are elsewhere)?

Might be able to write a shell script that launches it and then pass the the values to the executable - not sure if they'd get over written though my whats in the eclipse.ini
