Hello all,

i am new to this bugzilla.

I posted the same in Redhat [https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=693401]
and they told me to open the bug here.

Facing same problem :
---------------------
Eclipse Helios crashes with Fedora 15 KDE

But actually it was working fine..for the past 2-3 weeks.

I installed some plugins before. But i don't know that whether it made this
problem. Because i installed ShellED for editing shell script in eclpse
(installed before 2weeks).

I tried
-------
1. Increased memory ( i mean xms , xmx , maxpermsize in eclipse.ini file.)
2. Changed java path from openjdk to jdk
3. Did what he told in :
http://www.korri.net/blog/2011/5/6-how-to-fix-eclipse-helios-crashes-on-fedora-15.html
4. And at last as Earle Nietzel told added:
-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.XULRunnerPath=/usr/lib/xulrunner-2/


is there any other way..?



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Now my problem is coming when:
------------------------------
1. i am opening eclipse.

2. It will not get crash if i am not using for a long time..!!

3. Using a java project.

4. Withing 2-3 minutes it will be getting crashed.

Can you please attach the crash dumps?

Are you using 32- or 64-bit? Make sure you use the correct Eclipse version.

Moving to SWT: looks like a XULRunner issue.

Your Build Identifier indicates that you're using an eclipse release from around 3.6.  I believe that the Eclipse 3.7 release should work better for you.  If you still see this problem with Eclipse 3.7 then please re-open this report.  In the meantime closing as WORKSFORME.
