Description Remko Strating CLA 2010-07-22 08:43:41 EDT 
Build Identifier: 20100617-1415

Within a java file when editing code I try to copy paste some code from one place to the other within the java file.  This doesn't to work. The code isn't pasted.  I can paste the code to notepad. So the copy/cut works.  Only the pasting part doesn't work at all. 

Because of this when I have to paste and cut a lot of code I use eclipse Ganymede. 

Sometimes it will work, but then I will get the pasted code double. 

Very strange. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select a code and use control+C
2. Select the destination of the code 
3. Use Control + V

For me it's major, because I can't copy paste code which I use normally when programming.

Sorry, I cannot reproduce this. Do you have anything special installed that messes around with the clipboard?

Does it work in the Java editor?

No. It doesn't work with the Java Editor. I just installed the new Eclipse and did the updates from the Install new updates option.  

So this isn't a standard "bug" within the new Eclipse. What could cause it?

Dani Megart, 

Thanks for commenting that it isn't a standard problem. I've tried different options and found out that if Eclipse is in the sandbox of Comodo Internet Security Premium the pasting doesn't work.  

When I start eclipse out of the sandbox it works normally. So there is a conflict between Eclipse and the sandbox of Comodo. I will now start Eclipse out of the sandbox. 

So it isn't a bug within Eclipse and now a minor problem, because I can just do my work now.

Problem is caused by Sandbox of Comodo Internet Security.
