Description BensonN CLA 2009-02-11 15:37:56 EST 
Build ID: 3.5

Steps To Reproduce:
ASTParser.createAST (new NullProgressMonitor()) causes a hang on Linux machine: (It works fine on Eclipse 3.4, but not on 3.5), here is the example code:

String commentsText = "/**\n * @generated\n */\n";
char[] source = commentsText.toCharArray();
ASTParser parser = ASTParser.newParser(AST.JLS3);
parser.setKind (ASTParser.K_EXPRESSION);
parser.setSource (source);
parser.setSourceRange(0, source.length); 

ASTNode newBody = parser.createAST (new NullProgressMonitor());
if(newBody != null)
{
	...							}

What result do you expect?
The source is not an expression.

Did you check the behavior on Windows?
Comment 2 Olivier Thomann CLA 2009-02-17 20:14:57 EST 
So far I cannot reproduce.
I could try remote debugging if this can help to track it down.
Comment 3 Olivier Thomann CLA 2009-02-18 10:29:57 EST 
Closing as NOT_ECLIPSE.
This is a JIT issue.
