Eclipse 2.1 hangs on Sun JVM 1.4.2 beta on SuSE Linux 8.2 [message #54318] Thu, 29 May 2003 12:22 Go to next message

I am testing Eclipse 2.1 on a Sun JVM 1.4.2 beta on SuSE Linux 8.2 and
experienced that the IDE hangs very often, e. g.:

- In 9 of 10 tries, when invoking "Project/Rebuild all", the "Progress
Information" dialog opens, but does not show any progress bar. The process
viewer shows that the VM eats up 50% of my processing time, but actually
nothing happens. Even after one hour the IDE still hangs unchanged.

- Sometimes when I try to open the "Run..." menu item from the button with
the "running man" on it, the IDE freezes partially: The widgets work, but
the IDE does not respond (e. g. menus open, but actually do not execute
selected items).

- The editor panel once in a hour shows grey bars instead of characters.
Scrolling up and down repaints correctly.

- Doing a syntactical error, typing CTRL-S shows a task in the tasks list.
Then I am correcting that error, pressing CTRL-S again. The editor pane
shows no more problem icons, but the task still is there. Executing "Build
All" removes the tasks, even when there is nothing to compile actually.

Would be great if someone could tell me if this is a problem of Eclipse 2.1,
of the Sun VM, or of SuSE Linux 8.2, so that I know where to complain
about...

Thank
Markus

I'm using E2.1 with 1.4.2 beta on Windows and never saw such problems.
Must be a Linux only problem. Does this also happen with 1.4.1?
Perhaps it's a problem with your GTK libs? (assuming you're using GTK
instead of Motif)

I have a second machine with 1.4.2 beta on Redmond XP and yes, I do not have
the problems there, so it seems to be a problem of the SWT for GTK. I am
now trying the same constellation on 1.4.1 from Blackdown. Maybe I can find
out with several iterations...

Just tried out with 1.4.1 from blackdown. Seems to be a little bit better,
but also hangs in different situations. E. g. I wanted to run in debug mode
(used that just one minute before without problems) now the dialog
"Progress informations" shows a 50% bar for ten minutes (formerly started
in less than one second). What up here?

Tried new installation of Eclipse, recreated all projects. Same behaviour
with different VMs. Even when I just want to close a project eclipse hangs.
