Version 1.5.0_30 of the JVM is not suitable for this product. 1.6 or greater is required OSX

I recently downloaded eclipse for RCP and RAP developers. I am running OSX 10.5.8, and when I tried running eclipse i got the error "Version 1.5.0_30 of the JVM is not suitable for this product. 1.6 or greater is required". I went to utilities then java preferences and made sure that Java SE 6 was at the top of the preferred order list, it was not so I moved it up. I verified my system was pointing to the correct version

user-Macbook-Pro:~ user$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_26"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_26-b03-384-9M3425)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 20.1-b02-384, mixed mode)

however i still get the same error when trying to open eclipse. Any suggestions? Thank you for the help

It starts working after I modified eclipse.ini like below and added 

-vm C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_45\bin\javaw.exe
-startup
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.3.0.v20120522-1813.jar
-launcher.library
