Ever since I installed the most recent jvm update from Apple, I've been having problems with Eclipse. At first I thought it was my .metadata directory, so I deleted that. Then I tried getting older versions of Eclipse (Gallileo, Ganymede), also with the same problem.

On my machine, when I try to create a new project, Eclipse just hangs (beach ball o' death). It doesn't matter if I use my old workspace or a new one. I'm at a complete loss, and I cannot work until this is fixed. Please help!

I'm on a 64-bit Intel iMac.

Here's a partial stack trace of where I think Eclipse is stuck:

Hello,

I experienced the same issues using eclipse 3.6 (64bit cacoa) on a MBP
5,1 (Core 2 Duo 2,8 Ghz, 8G RAM) running OSX 10.6.6 and Java 1.6.0_24

The same applies to STS 2.6.0 and the latest Indigo milestone.

I increased memory in eclipse.ini to 1024mb but it does not solve the
problems.

I also tried to use a newer MBP but the problems stayed so i guess this
is related to the apple-jdk.

As for now eclipse is unusable.

@javagrendel:
What are the specs of your system? Perhaps we can figure out some
similarites.

Did anyone have similar problems?
Any hint is greatly appreciated as im getting quite desperate.

markus

I've no such problems at all:
* Helios 3.6.2 runs fine
* Indigo M5 runs fine
* Indigo I-Build runs fine
* Eclipse 4.1 runs fine

Mac OS 10.6.6 with Java 1.6.0_22

Tom,
thanks for the quick response.
Just to make sure:
did you alter the eclipse.ini and if so, would you mind posting it here?
I want make sure it's not related to the ini before i dig in any further.

thanks,
markus

No - plain download from Eclipse but I'm also using only the Platform
SDK from http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/

Solved but not found:

The problems vanished as soon as i unregistered from our windows-domain
at work.

So it seems to be an OSX problem. Funny still only eclipse seems
to get affected.
