Description Mauro Molinari

Build Identifier: M20100909-0800

Whenever I start Eclipse I get this in the error log and the list of the recent run/debug configurations is not populated correctly (I always see just some very old run/debug configurations used a long time ago).

Can you attach your launch history?

The launch history is saved in:
<workspace>/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.debug.ui/launchConfigurationHistory.xml

My launch history

Here is my launch history, as you requested. Thank you!

It would seem that our logic for finding the simple name of a configuration does not work for configurations named 'launch.launch'

Steps:

1. create a simple hello world Java class
2. create a new Java Application launch configuration for the hello world class
3. rename the new launch configuration to 'launch' (minus the quotes)
4. launch it so it appears in the launch history
5. restart Eclipse
6. check your log - you will have the exception mentioned in comment #0
