While it's hung, can you please get a heap dump?
Comment 2 Olivier Thomann CLA 2011-05-17 10:26:54 EDT 
Move to VE

I would if I could but I am in the middle of a project and I am using JGoodies forms which  - the last time I checked - VE didn't support.



Thanks

Sorry the pb should be reported against Window Builder and not VE.

We are unable to reproduce any problem based on the information you have provided so far, and nothing in the log you provided indicates a problem with WindowBuider. 

Please provide a complete test case (that will reproduce the problem) and reopen this case. We also need to see a heap dump when Eclipse hangs as suggested earlier (what you attached is just the startup log and does not provide any insight).

BTW, the most common cause for something like this a bug in a custom component that you are using. Check carefully that you are not relying or waiting on some runtime state that does not apply.
