Description Nathan Scott

Seems similar to https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=435742

Version: Mars.1 Release (4.5.1)
Build id: 20150924-1200

This happened in Luna 4.4-SR2 as well, but less reproducible. That was more at random, but had the same behavior. It was NOT fixed by anything in bug report #435742.

I hover over a line of code inside of a method, where the method needs a "throw" declaration. I select to add the throw declaration to the method using the quickfix suggestions.

Immediately, all non-alphanumeric keys stop working. Numbers and letters still insert into the editor, but Control+S won't work, backspace/delete don't work, etc.

However, if I hold down Alt, I can still access the context menus (e.g. File, Source, etc) using those mnemonics.

If I leave the Eclipse window entirely and press both mouse buttons, everything is restored in the editor window.

I was holding out to report this bug until I upgraded to Mars, hoping it would be fixed. No such luck.

Can you please add details about your OS, desktop and GTK versions? I assume you are using Eclipse with GTK3?

Sure. OS is Amazon Linux (RHEL-based as far as I know, has yum), GTK version 2.24.23, and it's being piped over ssh with X-forwarding. No window manager on the host machine, i3 on the client machine.

I cannot reproduce this issue. Please re-open this ticket if you experience the bug on 4.8 on GTK3.22.
