Hi all.
I've been experiencing a very frustrating issue with Eclipse Java Mars recently and, since I'm not a "real" programmer, in the sense that I don't have much experience in general, this led me to create an account on this forum.
To be honest, I'm a CS student and am working on an important assignment, so the project partially depends on the correct functioning of Eclipse, as I can't just move to another IDE or try figuring out the problem by myself without losing precious days, in my case. So, basically, I'm kindly asking for a quick help.
So, the title is self-explanatory: frequent, random crashes. Eclipse doesn't just freeze, it closes without any warning. I really don't know what causes this, but the behavioral pattern is pretty much the same every time. I write some code, do some changes, refactor a variable, and then it happens out of nowhere after 10-20 minutes or so. I should note, before closing, Eclipse creates two log files on my desktop (see attachments).
Some observations:
- Running code may not be a trigger;
- Saving may be a trigger;
- Sometimes Eclipse does exhibit a worrying sign, that is, I tipically copy a piece of code and it doesn't paste on the right location, but in a completely different one in the same file. The relation with the issue is completely euristic, but still worth noting;
- I'm running some memory intensive tests on a big data structure (created my myself). Same as above, it doesn't seem related (and surely wasn't the original cause);
- Sometimes completion hints take a long time to show up, and Eclipse itself noticeably slows down;
- I haven't implemented/ran any foreign code, but
- I recently downloaded and installed a Java update.
Specs:
Eclipse
Version: Mars Release (4.5.0)
Build id: 20150621-1200
Configured with MinGW.
System
HP G62-B13SL
Intel Core i3 350M
4GB RAM
Windows 7 64bit v.
Thank you for any help. Just tell me if you need more information.
P.s. I hope I've posted this in the right section. Please keep in mind English is not my main language.
