At seemingly random times, I will get flooded with error popup windows (push OK, get another one, push OK, get another, etc.). The stack trace from my log is below. I am on R3.1M6. My apologies if this is a duplicate .... I searched the bug reports for the top line in the stack but found over 200 hits. !ENTRY org.eclipse.jface 4 2 2005-04-14 13:24:50.737 !MESSAGE Problems occurred when invoking code from plug-in: "org.eclipse.jface". !STACK 0 java.lang.AbstractMethodError: org/eclipse/jdt/core/IJavaElement.getElementType()I at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.JavaModelCache.getInfo(JavaModelCache.java:71) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.JavaModelManager.getInfo(JavaModelManager.java:886) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.JavaElement.getElementInfo(JavaElement.java:229) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.JavaElement.getElementInfo(JavaElement.java:217) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.core.JavaElement.exists(JavaElement.java:136) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.corext.refactoring.Checks.isAvailable(Checks.java:758) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.corext.refactoring.RefactoringAvailabilityTester.isPushDownAvailable(RefactoringAvailabilityTester.java:640) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.corext.refactoring.RefactoringAvailabilityTester.isPushDownAvailable(RefactoringAvailabilityTester.java:662) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.corext.refactoring.RefactoringAvailabilityTester.isPushDownAvailable(RefactoringAvailabilityTester.java:678) at org.eclipse.jdt.ui.actions.PushDownAction.selectionChanged(PushDownAction.java:92) at org.eclipse.jdt.ui.actions.SelectionDispatchAction.dispatchSelectionChanged(SelectionDispatchAction.java:200) at org.eclipse.jdt.ui.actions.SelectionDispatchAction.selectionChanged(SelectionDispatchAction.java:195) at org.eclipse.jface.viewers.Viewer$2.run(Viewer.java:162) at org.eclipse.core.internal.runtime.InternalPlatform.run(InternalPlatform.java:1021) at org.eclipse.core.runtime.Platform.run(Platform.java:757) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.JFaceUtil$1.run(JFaceUtil.java:40) at org.eclipse.jface.util.SafeRunnable.run(SafeRunnable.java:148) at org.eclipse.jface.viewers.Viewer.fireSelectionChanged(Viewer.java:160) at org.eclipse.jface.viewers.StructuredViewer.updateSelection(StructuredViewer.java:1691) at org.eclipse.jface.viewers.StructuredViewer.setSelection(StructuredViewer.java:1359) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.javaeditor.JavaOutlinePage.select(JavaOutlinePage.java:1194) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.javaeditor.JavaEditor.synchronizeOutlinePage(JavaEditor.java:1883) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.javaeditor.JavaEditor.synchronizeOutlinePage(JavaEditor.java:1870) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.javaeditor.JavaEditor.selectionChanged(JavaEditor.java:1953) at org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.javaeditor.JavaEditor$EditorSelectionChangedListener.selectionChanged(JavaEditor.java:278) at org.eclipse.jface.text.TextViewer.firePostSelectionChanged(TextViewer.java:2295) at org.eclipse.jface.text.TextViewer.firePostSelectionChanged(TextViewer.java:2248) at org.eclipse.jface.text.TextViewer$4.run(TextViewer.java:2227) at org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display.runTimer(Display.java:2936) at org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display.messageProc(Display.java:2277) at org.eclipse.swt.internal.win32.OS.DispatchMessageW(Native Method) at org.eclipse.swt.internal.win32.OS.DispatchMessage(OS.java:1625) at org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display.readAndDispatch(Display.java:2525) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.runEventLoop(Workbench.java:1570) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.runUI(Workbench.java:1534) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.Workbench.createAndRunWorkbench(Workbench.java:306) at org.eclipse.ui.PlatformUI.createAndRunWorkbench(PlatformUI.java:143) at org.eclipse.ui.internal.ide.IDEApplication.run(IDEApplication.java:103) at org.eclipse.core.internal.runtime.PlatformActivator$1.run(PlatformActivator.java:228) at org.eclipse.core.runtime.adaptor.EclipseStarter.run(EclipseStarter.java:344) at org.eclipse.core.runtime.adaptor.EclipseStarter.run(EclipseStarter.java:156) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:85) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:58) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:60) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:391) at org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main.invokeFramework(Main.java:315) at org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main.basicRun(Main.java:268) at org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main.run(Main.java:942) at org.eclipse.core.launcher.Main.main(Main.java:926)
Haven't heard about this issue so far. This feels too big to be true. Could it be a corrupted JAR or bogus VM ? Could you detail a bit more how you obtain it ? Which platform you are using ?
Please reopen after providing further information. Which VM are you using? Which platform/OS?
I am running on Windows XP Professional using IBM JDK 1.4.2 (specifically, J2RE 1.4.2 IBM Windows 32 build cn142-20040717). The launch command is like this: eclipse.exe -vm c:\jdk14\java\jre\bin\javaw.exe -vmargs -Xj9
Reopening ...
So you can repeat this problem fairly easily? If so, can you try a different VM or turn off the jit to see if it still happens.
Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce this at will. However, it has happened to me fairly regularly (maybe once every day or every other day). It seems to happen most frequently when I am actively editing code and the code is in some syntactically invalid state (e.g. I haven't closed a brace ('}') or completed a method name, etc. I will start by upgrading to a newer IBM JDK 1.4.2 and monitoring.
