SQL Developer and TestComplete 9.31

Since upgrading my TestComplete 9.1 to 9.31 I receive an error message when starting SQL Developer if TestComplete is running:



    Unable to create an instance of the Java Virtual Machine

    Located at path:

    C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_21\jre\bin\client\jvm.dll



Is this a known issue?  Has a resolution been found?

    I forgot to say that I was using SQL Developer version 4.0.0.12



    And I noticed I had a typo in the location of the SQL Developer configuration file.  I mistyped the folder name "bin" as "din".  The correct location is:



    <SQL Developer home>\ide\bin\ide.conf

    I found something that worked on the WWW. 



    I changed my <SQL_DEVELOPER_HOME>\ide\din\ide.conf file.



    AddVMOption  -Xmx800M

      to

    AddVMOption  -Xmx512M

    Update...



    The above modification to the SQL Developer configuration file worked until I opened a larger project.  So I modifed the config file again changing...



    AddVMOption  -Xmx512M

      to

    AddVMOption  -Xmx256M



    and now SQL Developer opens while TestComplete has a large project open.

    Thanks Don,

    I had a similar problem with Eclipse Helios and TestComplete, your fix worked.
