We have received a request to back-port the fix for 111106 into the 3.1.x stream. Once the fix has had some testing in the 3.2 stream, we will consider this.
Automated testing of our headless application appears to be consistently hanging due to this problem. Could you post a patch for Eclipse 3.1.1?
Received another request for this fix.
Fix released to 3.1.x stream.
John, With some recent changes to dependencies in our stack, I now get the following message quite regularly. Do you know if this is related to 111106 and whether or not your fix will resolve this? !ENTRY org.eclipse.core.runtime 2 2 2005-10-31 11:06:51.947 !MESSAGE Job found still running after platform shutdown. Jobs should be cancel ed by the plugin that scheduled them during shutdown: org.eclipse.core.internal. utils.StringPoolJob
Yes, the fix should stop that message. That message is mainly logged as a warning to the plugin author that they should be cleaning up, and it doesn't in itself represent a significant failure.
Would not that become a significant falure if a shutdown hook is used when shutting down the workbench? The jvm will be prevented from shutting down?
When you say "shutdown hook", are you referring to java.lang.Runtime#addShutdownHook(Thread)? I don't see any connection...
Yen Lu, the Eclipse 3.1.2 release candidate is now available (M20060109-1200). Would it be possible for you to verify the fix in that build? I will also be doing independent verification, but want to ensure it solves your particular problem.
Verified fixed code is in M20060109-1200
