[SWT/Linux] Startup takes ages [message #333555] Wed, 17 December 2008 05:25 Go to next message

Hi,

sorry, this might be a newbie question, but I have looked in a lot of
places and did a lot of searching. It also might be a bit off-topic
since this seems more of a linux configuration issue - sorry for that. But:

When I start Eclipse on Linux x86 (32-bit) KDE (sorry, can't change
that, as only KDE is installed on that machine and I have no control
over that as I'm not root ...) it takes ages. It hangs in the system
call gnome_vfs_mime_get_default_application. (I think with a new and
clean workspace it first happens when I expand the navigator's tree...).
This call blocks until some timeout seems to happen after minutes. Then
everything continues normal and works fine.

Does anyone know what this call does (well, my guess is that it queries
the gnome vfs for the default hanlder application for an image type) and
especially what could block in there and where I could change something
in the configuration for this call to not block?

Again, sorry for being half-OT and thanks for any hints ...

Cheers,
Stefan

Cool - that did help indeed. I had .groovy files in my workspace. As
soon as I added a file extension binding in Eclipse, the problem vanished.

Thanks for the rapid aswer :-)

Cheers
Stefan
