Created attachment 195002 [details] Snippet to reproduce the bug Build id: I20110428-0848 (Eclipse 3.7 M7) Sometimes it is necessary to load browser content synchronously. This is done by spinning the event loop until a ProgressEvent 'completed' is received. Such code is found, for example, in the BrowserInformationControl (JFace). On Mac OS X, there is a bug that may cause the UI to freeze. Steps to reproduce: 1. Run the attached FreezeBug.java 2. Double-click a list item before the browser completes to load (if computer is too fast, increase the 'paragraphCount') 3. Scroll the list back and forth with the mouse wheel --> UI is freezed; no scrolling occurs 4. Click the list --> UI wakes up and tries to catch up --> list wildly scrolls and UI freezes again I can also reproduce this bug in 3.6.2, but not in 3.5. This broke my RCP application when I tried to migrate from 3.5 to 3.7 M7. On Windows, everything is fine.
Addendum: Mac OS X Version 10.5.8, Cocoa, 32-bit Java 1.5.0_28
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. If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. 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. If the bug is still relevant, please remove the "stalebug" whiteboard tag.
