Test project that reproduces the problem.

I20121204-1000

If I try to deactivate a context and then immediately reactivate it, the end result doesn't seem like the context actually gets activated. It seems the deactivation UpdateRequest is always(?) the one that gets shafted so it is processed last.

1. Import the attached project into Eclipse.
2. Run an inner and open the 'Context Bug View'.
3. Focus on the view.
4. Hit the spacebar, messages are printed in sysout.
5. Activate another view.
6. Repeat step 4, nothing happens.
7. Window > Preferences
8. Close the dialog.
9. Repeat step 4, messages are printed now.

Went to someone else's computer and he didn't seem to see this problem on Linux (the original problem, not this particular test case...though in theory they should be identical). It may or may not be Windows-specific (given that there is some SWT code here.

I cannot reproduce the bug in my environment - Windows 7 x64.
Tested with Eclipse 4.3.0, 4.3.2 and 4.4 I20140427-2030.

I can't reproduce this either.  I might have already been fixed. Possibly as part of bug 410068 or bug 384758
