I regularly update Eclipse through Eclipse's "Search for update of the currently installed feature" - so that I'm quite 'up-to-date' of Eclipse's Version. Since a few days, Eclipse crashes suddenly during Java source code editing. The workspace/.metadata/.log has no entry message for such a crash (but it's not empty as it has other messages from sooner problems). The bug shows as this: - always during typing in a Java source code editor (i.e. not special function call of the Eclipse IDE) - Eclipse just vanishes and a small Windows shows the Java startup parameters (as if you start Eclipse with wrong parameters for example). If you click the "OK" button, this window also disapperas. THAT'S ALL! Not error message in .log or anything else. As this occurs always during coding (type source code), this is very annoying as all code since the last save is lost ... and of course, you don't save after each line. :-(
Please attach your configuration details to this bug (use "Help->About_Configuration Details", save to a file, then "Create New Attachment").
Created attachment 50792 [details] Crash log crash dump for a Eclipse/JVM crash
I found out that "hs_err_pidXXX.log" files get generated each time Eclipse crashes. I guess it's in combination with the Sun JDK/JRE?
Moving to JDT/Core since the crash happens in their code, but this looks like a VM bug to me.
Please try the latest VM. This is a VM bug. Report this issue to the VM vendor. There is nothing we can do about it.
