Eclipse crashing and ignoring User libraries [message #242979] Thu, 19 April 2007 16:07 Go to next message

Win XP SP 2 | Eclipse 3.2.2 Build M20070212-1330

Eclipse crashes on me from time to time. I can live with that, but when this
happens, every time it restarts my projects cannot find their dependent
classes due to the my User Libraries being messed up. If I go into each User
Library and edit it to add or remove a jar, everything rebuilds again and
all is well. This is a serious pain though, and I was wondering if anyone
had other suggestions on how to get around this bug?

Aidan,

Is it a crash of the JVM? If so, maybe you want to try a different
JVM. I use Eclipse constantly all day every day and I have never had a
crash using the IBM JVM. Perhaps it's an out-of-memory type of thing,
in which case increasing the memory would help. It might also help if
you have everything in a good state and then exit Eclipse so that
everything has been gracefully saved. Perhaps selecting all projects
and invoking "Refresh" would be another good way to return sanity after
a crash...

Hi Ed,

I'm not sure if it's a JVM crash - no dialog box comes up and Eclipse just
disappears. I don't think it's memory as I have the max mem set at 640M with
typically usage around 1/2 of that.

I've used various JVMs from Sun, 1.5 - 1.6, and while it may be true that
some crash less frequently than others, I want to be able to recover from it
by cleaning the projects in my workspace in one shot, not going through my
User Libraries adding or removing jar files.

This bug mentions what I'm seeing especially the last comment, albeit in a
different scenario:

Thanks, that's exactly what I hoped for!
