Build Identifier: M20110909-1335

I downloaded eclipse, created a project, set my project configuration to use mingw and added an include path for the mingw C++ libraries and then program crashed. When I tried to reopen it, it crashed again. I then deleted Eclipse, downloaded a fresh copy and tried opening it up, and it crashed once again. When I removed the project, Eclipse worked fine, so the issue likely lies within the project files.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Download Eclipse
2.Import attached project
3.

Can you attach the log? Sound like a JVM issue.

Error log

This is the error log from the incident, it reports a EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION in the JVM
Comment 4 Marc-André Laperle CLA 2011-10-06 12:55:14 EDT 
This is a bug in the JVM. Try updating the JRE or use the work around found in
bug 333227.
