Description Chris Jaun CLA 2011-03-16 16:48:10 EDT

Build Identifier: M20090211-1700

The JavaScript indexing thread is indexing data outside of my workspace.  I'm not quite sure why this would happen.

My workspace is located in c:/workspaces/runtime-MyTestWorkspace.

Periodically when I shutdown Eclipse, it takes a LONG time to shutdown.  I usually run Eclipse in debug mode (launched by another Eclipse instance) for developing new plugins.  During the long delay on shutdown, I've noticed that the JavaScript indexing thread is quite active.  I've suspended this thread in the debugger and examined the stack.  It appears that the JavaScript indexing thread is busy trying to index all javascript files located under c:/workspaces.

I would assume that the JavaScript indexing thread runs on some schedule to periodically index or re-index the JavaScript files, and I only encounter this issue on periodic shutdowns of my workspace.


Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Configure a workspace using the path described above in c:/workspaces/runtime-MyTestWorkspace
2.Place a large amount of content in a folder such as c:/workspaces/junk
3.Shutdown Eclipse - it will attempt to index the c:/workspaces/junk folder
