安装Oracle JDK 7.0与8.0 for Mac OS X后Eclipse启动报错的解决之道

启动 eclipse 时，直接报错

the jvm shared library "/library/java/javavirtualmachines/jdk1.8.0_25.jdk/contents/home/bin/../jre/lib/server/libjvm.dylib"

does not contain the jni_createjavavm symbol.

unable to find any jvms matching architecture "i386".

eclipse[526:14077] error loading /library/java/javavirtualmachines/jdk1.8.0_25.jdk/contents/macos/libjli.dylib:  dlopen(/library/java/javavirtualmachines/jdk1.8.0_25.jdk/contents/macos/libjli.dylib, 265): no suitable image found.  did find:

        /library/java/javavirtualmachines/jdk1.8.0_25.jdk/contents/macos/libjli.dylib: mach-o, but wrong architecture

既然报 wrong architecture 错，就看看这两个文件到底是什么状况：

通过执行 lipo -info /library/java/javavirtualmachines/jdk1.8.0_25.jdk/contents/home/bin/../jre/lib/server/libjvm.dylib

architectures in the fat file: /library/java/javavirtualmachines/jdk1.8.0_25.jdk/contents/home/bin/../jre/lib/server/libjvm.dylib are: x86_64

以及 lipo -info /library/java/javavirtualmachines/jdk1.8.0_25.jdk/contents/macos/libjli.dylib

non-fat file: /library/java/javavirtualmachines/jdk1.8.0_25.jdk/contents/macos/libjli.dylib is architecture: x86_64

清楚地显示 architecture: x86_64，于是乎，真正的根源找到了，是因为eclipse是32位的，而oracle jdk 7.0与8.0均为64位的，解决的问题很简单，下载eclipse 64位for mac os x即可。

因为 /library/java/javavirtualmachines/jdk1.8.0_25.jdk/contents/home/bin/java -d32 -version 执行的结果为：

error: this java instance does not support a 32-bit jvm.

please install the desired version.
