Build used: 20020425 Here is how you can reproduce the defect using org.eclipse.pde.ui/plugin.xml as an example: 1. On the extensions page, select the element <perspective> toward the top of the tree. You will see its properties (class,icon,id,name) in the properties sheet below. 2. Edit the id field. When you finish typing, leave the cursor in the field you just edited, i.e. do not click anywhere else on the property sheet or press Enter. 3. Click on the source tab. You will get an exception saying: "A stack overflow error has occurred. It is recommended to exit the workbench. Subsequent errors may happen and terminate the workbench without warning". You get a huge stack trace, which expected since it is a stack overflow error.
Could you look at it?
Fixed by posting reselection on a gui thread. That should break the looping.
