[orion-dev] Fw: [eclipse-dev] PLEASE READ: Eclipse Crash with Java 7 64-

[John Arthorne <John_Arthorne@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This JRE bug impacts Orion too, due to
its use of Lucene and Solr which both exhibit the problem. I recommend
you avoid running the Orion server with Oracle Java 7 until this is fixed.
You can also try the workaround of -XX:-UseLoopPredicate,
but keep in mind XX arguments are generally unsupported and can have unpredictable
results.

Subject	[eclipse-dev] PLEASE READ: Eclipse Crash with Java 7 64-bit

When running Eclipse with Oracle Java 7 64-bit JRE
(b147), Eclipse will 
crash when it tries to index help documentation that isn't shipped 
together with its index. The crash happens in Apache Lucene due to a bug
in the Oracle VM (
http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=7070134).
Oracle 
confirmed the problem and is planning to ship the fix with the next 
official update, currently planned for October 18.

The crash can be avoided by using the -XX:-UseLoopPredicate VM argument
(-vmargs -XX:-UseLoopPredicate).
