When your application freezes, it's
almost always a deadlock problem of some kind. Make sure you understand
the semantics of Display.syncExec(), since this can be source of deadlock
in multi-threaded UIs.

What is a "freeze"? Does it ever come back or hang forever? You
could experiment with the IBM VM to see if the problem went away but I
don't know of any VM specific issues for SWT.

Hi All, 
  
I experiements many "freezes"  with a Java application.
(done with Java, Thread, SWT, JNI ). 
But unfortunatly, I dont get any exception messages.
  
I am using the SUN JDK (1.4.2_01, then, 1.4.2_03). Is swt fully compatible
with the SUN JVM, or should I use the IBM one ?! 
Since I get no exception, I dont have any clue to find bugs, do you have
any idea to trace or bebug it? 
  
Thanks,
