Description craigoliveira CLA 2011-10-09 23:44:11 EDT 
Build Identifier: 20110218-0911

I was importing the code for ffmpeg into eclipse, and the indexer seems to crash whenever it is importing, and whenever the eclipse platform with CDT enabled afterwards is loaded up.

I've captured a few error reports and will attach them to the bug once filed.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a new project named ffmpeg
2. Import sources for ffmpeg 
3. Eclipse crashes in CDT c parser (I am assuming in the indexer, since it happens no matter how I try to import it)

just an FYI this isn't really critical for me personally, just opened it as such since it was a hard crash

Looks like bug 333227. Can you try updating your JRE or the work around mentioned in bug 333227?

Ah ha! thanks for the workaround!
