I was sync'ing my workspace (in the synchronize perspective) and while waiting I tried to change back to the Java perspective. I had the javadoc view open (not the active view) and it was showing doc from a class. During the switch I got the following error:

Am I right that the Browser widget isn't installed/working? It looks like the fall back code is running here.

Can you reproduce?

Comment 2 Michael Rennie

2007-10-30 12:46:32 EDT

The browser widget was not working (but is now). And I have not been able to reproduce. Maybe the fall-back code could handle it more gracefully?

Comment 3 Dani Megert

>Maybe the fall-back code could handle it more gracefully?
Well, it should of course. I suspect some speciality with the source it wanted to show. We would need a test case to do something here.

Comment 4 Michael Rennie

2007-10-30 14:05:44 EDT

this is the class and javadoc header it was showing at the time the error occurred:


/**
 * This preference page allows {@link IApiProfile}s to be created/removed/edited
 * @since 1.0.0
 */
public class ApiProfilesPreferencePage extends PreferencePage implements IWorkbenchPreferencePage {

...
<snip>
...
}

The ApiProfilesPreferencePage class is in the org.eclipse.pde.api.tools.ui (manifest_tooling branch) pde-incubator project.

Comment 5 Michael Rennie

just got the error again, with my browser working correctly, and the javadoc view not the the focus view. Immediately after I was hit with an out of memory error, maybe one has an effect on the other?

Comment 6 Dani Megert

>just got the error again, w
That's not possible. If the Browser is now working then it cannot be the same code path. Must be a slightly different path.

Can you provide reproducible steps?

Comment 7 Michael Rennie

2007-10-31 15:27:09 EDT

I have no concrete steps, it seems to occur intermittently. I have not seen it at all today.

Comment 8 Dani Megert

2008-05-16 02:12:54 EDT

Sorry, nothing I can do without steps.
