Description Beirti O 'Nunain

In versions previous to Oxygen, when you import a project containing Launch Configuration files, the 'favorites' submenus are populated under the run/debug/profile icon with launch files tagged as 'favorite'. These are no longer populated when you import a project in to the workspace.

Once you have launched one of the configurations, it appears again in the favorites drop down.

The error log contains the message "UI thread waiting on a job or lock." with the below stack trace. An uneducated guess is that the thread is trying to populate the dropdown while the workspace is still compiling and there are classpath errors (requiring a maven update).

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. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. 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.
