Description Carlos Blanco CLA 2020-10-09 07:33:07 EDT
Project browser, file tabs and their content randomly become non responding in any perspective. Restarting eclipse is the only way to get back to normal. That keeps happening, though

Can you enable UI freeze monitoring and check the Error log view for traces? See https://www.vogella.com/tutorials/EclipsePerformance/article.html#eclipse_uifreeze_monitor

I enabled that. After a while it happend again. I could not see anything in the error view, though. Anyhow, it prevents me for browsing among tabs. Would it be that log file somewhere in the eclipse installation directory?

Sorry. I closed it by mistake
Comment 4 Lars Vogel CLA 2020-10-09 08:58:04 EDT
Yes, should be in your workspace in .metadata/.log and it should also be available after a restart in the Error Log.
Comment 5 Andrey Loskutov CLA 2020-10-09 09:00:09 EDT
Create & attach jstack dump please.

I did not manage to get that trace on eclipse's error view.  I came across it while searching in eclipse-workspace/.metadata/.log file as you suggested.
Could you please tell me how to enable the error view to make it easier next time?
Cheers
