Description Lynne Kues CLA 2003-05-09 10:39:45 EDT
java.vm.info=J2RE 1.3.1 IBM Windows 32 build cn131-20020710 (JIT enabled: jitc)
Build 200303272130
Win2k

Started my workspace from yesterday, which was working just fine when I left 
last night.  Made a minor change to a CU and attempted to save.  Got an "Error 
during build" message.  Reloaded from local history and tried again - "Save 
Failed null" message.  Exited Eclipse and restarted and tried again, still 
unable to save.  Attaching log file.

This is a known VM bug. In subsequent version of the compiler (post 2.1), we 
released a better work-around (try to get a more recent integration build). 

Alternatively, use a newer JRE (SR4 is claimed to be fine).
