The Eclipse workbench crashes if a USB serial port that TM Terminal is using is deleted because it is no longer connected to the computer. I can recreate this by using Terminal to connect to a device that is providing a USB serial port that Windows has identified and then simply unplug the USB cable. I noticed this behaviour because the hardware I'm working with resets the USB/RS232 interface every time I start the debugger. I have been able to work with the same hardware and Terminal in the past so I have tested with both my old Indigo Eclipse and current JRE 6 & 7. All tests have the same result so I am beginning to think that this fault has been exposed by a JRE update.

(In reply to comment #1) > This is a defect in the RXTX serial port library: > http://bugzilla.qbang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=199 Thanks for looking at this Martin.
The Terminal component of the Eclipse Ecosystem has a new home. The Terminal is now part of the Eclipse CDT project[1]. This change means a new Git repo[2], P2 site[3] and Bugzilla component. The terminal will continue to be delivered as part of the quarterly Simultaneous Release of Eclipse as well. The marketplace entry[4] had not been updated in a few years. It will once again install the latest release of the terminal on the latest release of the whole IDE (currently 2020-03). If this bug is no longer relevant, please feel free to comment or close the bug. If you can confirm if this issues still occurs in the latest release please do let me know in a comment.
