No More Handles Exception [message #1632757] Tue, 24 February 2015 08:11 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
In the RCP application being developed, I have a "View" containing a TreeViewer and an "Editor" also containing a Treeviewer.

The Tabbed Properties View is designed in such a way that, the Properties view is updated based on the selection of an item in the TreeView of "View" and "Editor"

In one of the scenario, Make a selection of an item in the editor, properties view is updated. (Editor is in focus)
Now bring the View to focus and make a selection of an item in View. Now again the Properties view is updated.
After the above mentioned steps, if i make a selection on an element in the Treeviewer of Editor, an exception "No more handles" is thrown ... Sad

PS : During the above steps, Properties view is visible

If more info needed, plz let me know....

Stack trace for the same is given below

Please note, the above error occurs when working with CITRIX XenApp.
But in the normal pc, there is no exception... Shocked

Really a strange behaviour.. Sad

NOTE : And also one more point is , this error initially was assumed to be as a result of Properties View, But it doesnt seem to be because of Properties View...

Hi Deepak,
I Came across this Error. In my case i am using a table and creating more no of rows and a particular column is having button in it. As the no. of rows increases no. of Widgets on the table increases and after a certain limit (500-600 in my case)i am getting that error. In that Case i have used nebula grid instead of table.
First try with less no. of treeItems and confirm you also have the same issue.If so, go for Nebula Grid/NatTable.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Pavan,

It doesnt fix in my case because, this seems to be an issue with the CITRIX application itself. It was consuming all the handles available in the system. There was some blog / forum in which i am not able to recollect, mentioned that its an issue with CITRIX. (If i get that link again, shall post it here)
