Build ID: M20080221-1800 Steps To Reproduce: 1.open a java file 2.select a variable by clicking on it 3.press f2 and hover the mouse over the information window that just got focuse. or hover a Browser object after loading a url. More information: I am using Fedora 9. I have tried both openJDK and sun's jdk and the problem persits. I have tried it on windows and it works so I believe there is a problem related to SWT and Fedora 9. On Fedora 8, a month or two ago, this problem did not exist. Now I don't know.
I forgot to mention that when Eclipse closes suddenly, it gives the message "Aborted" at the console.
Not sure if this is JDT or Plaform Text.
>hover a Browser object after loading a url. Can you give more details here. I'm not sure what you are exactly doing here. Please attach the VM dump (will be either in your home, eclipse or VM directory). >3.press f2 and hover the mouse over the information window that just got >focuse. Please take a screen shot of this and attach it here.
Do you get the crash when you go Window > Show View > Other > General > Internal Web Browser?
Created attachment 102037 [details] The F2 help poppup. If I hover it with the mouse(point the mouse to it), eclipse shuts down.

When I go to Window > Show View > Other > General > Internal Web Browser Eclipse closes suddenly. I don't get to see anything else. How do I get the jvm crash log? I can't find it in the specified locations.
(In reply to comment #6) > How do I get the jvm crash log? I can't find it in the specified locations. If it's not in any of the places Dani mentioned, then I'm not really sure. Generally, it's wherever Eclipse is installed or wherever you invoked Eclipse (./eclipse). When you crash, nothing shows up in the console?
Moving to SWT as it crashes at various places where the Browser widget is used.

I usually start it in the system menu. If I start it in the console by tying "$ eclipse" the only message I get is "Aborted", as I earlier stated. I can't find any hs_err_pid* file on my system so I think there is no log generated or even no jvm crash. What's with the "Aborted" message? What other info can I give you?
(In reply to comment #9) > I have eclipse installed using yum Can you try getting a recent build of Eclipse from eclipse.org and reproducing the error? http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/drops/S-3.4RC2-200805230100/index.php
This sounds a lot like bug 209428 which is fixed in the 3.4 stream. To verify whether this is the case, you can either try a recent 3.4-stream build, or set your MALLOC_CHECK_ environment variable to 0 before running. Taking ownership for now. Please follow up with whether one of these helps you.

I will update my eclipse installation as soon as it gets on the fedora repository. Untill then, I will use this workaround. Thank you again.
