Build Identifier: Build id: I20100608-0911 I am using the release version of eclipse 3.6 helios. I have the following configuration of linux: bash-3.2$ uname -a && cat /etc/*release Linux dadvml0178 2.6.18-164.0.0.0.1.el5xen #1 SMP Wed Sep 2 22:48:20 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Enterprise Linux Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 (Carthage) Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 (Tikanga) If i create 2 SWT Text controls using the SWT.MULTI style, i see that eclipse crashes silently without any log messages (in the .log file or under the eclipse folder) after a while. new Text(composite, SWT.MULTI | SWT.H_SCROLL | SWT.V_SCROLL |SWT.WRAP); I don't have this problem on the following configuration: bash-3.00$ uname -a && cat /etc/*release Linux dadvml0046 2.6.9-89.0.0.0.1.ELxenU #1 SMP Tue May 19 04:48:26 EDT 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux Enterprise Linux Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (October Update 8) Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 8) Please let me know if this is a known issue or suggest a workaround for this issue. I have plenty of code which uses SWT.MULTI and i don't want to change that code. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create 2 SWT Text controls using the SWT.MULTI style 2. Type soem text in one control and go to the other text control 3. When you are typing the text in the other control (or if you go out of focus), eclipse hangs for a while and then crashes without emitting any messages in the .log file or anything under the eclipse folder
(In reply to comment #0) > 1. Create 2 SWT Text controls using the SWT.MULTI style Is this inside an Eclipse plug-in or can you reproduce the problem with a regular SWT snippet? Please provide the code to reproduce the problem. Are you using the Motif or GTK+ SWT build? > 3.

Are you using HotSpot? Please search your system for hs_err_pid* log files.
I am using the GTK+ SWT build. Here's what i am using: bash-3.2$ java -version java version "1.6.0_20-rev" Java(TM) Platform, Standard Edition for Business (build 1.6.0_20-rev-b03) Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 16.3-b02, mixed mode) I cannot reproduce this issue in a standalone SWT snippet. It is failing within an eclipse plugin, specifically when displaying within the peoprty sheet: here's some code: Composite composite = getWidgetFactory().createFlatFormComposite(parent); nameText = controlFactory.createText(composite, SWT.SINGLE); descriptionText = controlFactory.createText(composite, SWT.MULTI | SWT.H_SCROLL | SWT.V_SCROLL | SWT.WRAP); In the code above, i don't have any issues with the nameText but i have issues when i edit and go away from descriptionText. I will try to create a small eclipse plugin and see if i can reproduce this.
Created attachment 176199 [details] gdb command output for the core file gdb command output
I saw a core file when eclipse crashed. I could not locate the hs_err_id log file. Please let me know if you see anything useful in the file i have attached. Here's the best information i could see in the log file: Thread 1 (process 23356): #0 0xb7faf402 in __kernel_vsyscall () #1 0x00be6040 in raise () from /lib/i686/nosegneg/libc.so.6 #2 0x00be7a21 in abort () from /lib/i686/nosegneg/libc.so.6 #3 0x0037ab32 in g_logv () from /lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #4 0x0037ab69 in g_log () from /lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #5 0x0037abe6 in g_assert_warning () from /lib/libglib-2.0.so.0 #6 0x00753c2b in ??

In the machine where the problem happens, What is the version of gtk ? What is the locale, is there an input method problem running ? Which one ? Is accessibility enabled ? If so, turning it off fixes the problem ? Please, try to find that hs_err_id log file. Thank you
GTK version: ============ $ rpm -q gtk2 gtk2-2.10.4-20.el5 Locale: ======= $ locale LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8" LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8" LC_ALL= In the System->Preferences->Input Method, i see that it's set to "Follow the System-wide configuration [SCIM]" I did a system wide search and i could not locate the hs_err_pid log file.
I also see that Accessibility is turned OFF on this System.
Can you turn off SCIM ? Does it make a difference ?
I turned SCIM off and set it to "Never Use Input Methods" and i still see the problem. As a side note, i noticed that if i use StyledText instead of Text i have no problems.
Can you please attach a snippet that I can use to reproduce the crash ?
This crash happens when using Text(SWT.MULTI) in the tabbed property sheet only. I don't see an issue if i use Text anywhere else like the editor and dialogs. And on top of it i tried a small plugin which uses the Text Multi in the property sheet and i cannot seem to reproduce the problem. That's been the difficulty in attaching a reproducer. This makes me think that there is some other thing in my product which may be causing this side effect.
I understand, but without a reproducible test case and without the log file I don't know how to provide futher help to you. Please let me know of any future information that can help us here.
After looking at http://wiki.eclipse.org/IRC_FAQ#Crashers.2C_Freezing.2C_and_other_Major_Issues (bug 215234) Since my machine was indeed using GTK 2.10, I added the following line to my eclipse.ini: -Dorg.eclipse.swt.internal.gtk.disablePrinting and i have no problems now.
This flag will work as a workaround for now. Do you see how the flag can affect Text functionality? Also, i am not sure why i could not have the hs_err* log file generated. Should i do anything specific to see this logfile ? I tried passing in the -XX:ErrorFile=<logfilename> and i still don't see the log file.
I can't reproduce this crash, and the system this bug happened on isn't supported any longer.
