Build Identifier: M20100909-0800 This is intermittent and hard to describe much less search for. Sorry if I duplicate a known issue. On occasion, I get garbage inserted into my JAVA code. I have no way of being able to predict when it will occur, much less reproduce the problem. Description below attempts to describe latest event in the sequence it happened. I have seen it also insert single characters here and there. The JAVA class it failed on is ~30k and 721 lines. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1.I changed a method name, added a parameter and corrected the method. 2. I fixed the one place the method was called for the additional parameter. 3. I went to run the program and in two places, the original method had been inserted into the JAVA code and consequently I had errors. One insertion was in the middle of an if statement, the other in the midst of straight line code. The inserted code (probably) was from an earlier copy-paste operation (my memory is uncertain) since the method I am tweaking is a copy of another method made 10-15 minutes previously and they both look a lot alike (I didn't think to verify this before I corrected the problem, tested the change and then bitched here).
Dave, I'm sorry, but I can't recall having seen a similar bug before. Without further information there's nothing I can do. Please also see http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/platform-text/development/bug-incomplete.htm.
