Thanks for all your help. It Worked after java 8 installation.i like to understand how the changes made to eclipse.ini reflects in the eclipse error message image i posted. i had added -vm... to eclipse.ini but the -vm values in the error image is different from the one i entered into the eclipse.ini — Explain Down Vote

Eclipse Oxygen requires at least Java 8 to run even if osgi.requiredJavaVersion is set to 1.7.

In eclipse.ini the parameter -vm must be used directly before -vmargs. For details see Eclipse Wiki: Eclipse.ini - Specifying the JVM.
