Description Christian Pontesegger

When a badly written Property tester for contextualLauch throws an exception, the whole Run As..., Debug As... submenu is not opened.

See Bug 438335 for a stacktrace

The same root cause is also responsible for following stacktrace, which happens when hovering over the run button in the main toolbar:

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got
resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some
reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it.
The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you
still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is
(for whatever reason) no longer relevant.

If the bug is still relevant, please remove the stalebug whiteboard tag.
