[ptp-dev] Problems with Eclipse session hang after starting proxy

[Dave Wootton <dwootton@xxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm running into a problem which now seems to happen every time I start my 
proxy. Up until the point where I start the proxy, my test Eclipse session 
runs normally. Once I start the proxy, the Eclipse UI works for a while 
then is completely frozen. There is no response to mouse clicks anywhere, 
and if I obscure and expose part of the Eclipse session window, it does 
not repaint. This leads me to believe something is blocked or looping on 
one of the main UI threads. I think this is happening after the front end 
receives a machine state event in response to the proxy creating a new 
machine (default) since that's the last message I see before the hang. If 
I click the UI quickly enough, before I see this message, then it responds 
for a couple seconds before it hangs.

Has anyone else seen this with the latest code level?

I started to debug this by suspending the UI threads and looking at call 
stacks, but I'm not sure how to identify a UI thread out of the dozen or 
so threads in the session. I'm not sure this is the correct approach 
either since I suppose the UI thread could be running normally and is just 
blocked waiting for notification from some ther thread.

This has been happening off and on for me for the last few days. Now it 
seems to be consistent. The only code I have been changing today is my 
parallel tab code, which I'm not even getting to now.

I don't see any messages in the error log, or elsewhere.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
Dave
