Display a warning dialog if Eclipse is not configured with a proper stack and heap size?

The download page explains how to configure Eclipse, but users may ignore it and suffer adverse effects (e.g., it may severely aggravate the effects of https://yellowgrass.org/issue/Spoofax/51). Right now we log this in the error log, should we show this warning some other way?

Alternatively, we could try to do this automatically (not fool-proof and requiring much more effort): Spoofax/87.

This is indeed very annoying and confusing for new users.

The checks are already performed but it seems that no error/warning is displayed. Will look into it.

I propose we solve this the following way:

  • Every time a new version of Spoofax is installed and the startup parameters are incorrect we will display an warning dialog. The warning dialog can be silenced by ‘Don’t show this again’. Regardless of silencing status the warning dialog will appear at least once following a Spoofax upgrade.

Acceptable?
