Description Paul Gestwicki

2014-09-29 15:24:19 EDT

I am running the latest Eclipse release, downloaded as Luna SR1, 64-bit for Linux. My desktop is Mint, running KDE. I can reliably crash Eclipse by simply opening the Preferences menu and choosing Appearance. The session will crash with this message:

java: /build/buildd/gtk2-engines-oxygen-1.4.5/src/animations/oxygencomboboxdata.cpp:87: void Oxygen::ComboBoxData::setButton(GtkWidget*): Assertion `!_button._widget' failed.

This also happens when I try to create a new Android project using the latest Android tools, but obviously it's easier to verify from the Appearances tab.

I also get this warning logged when I start Eclipse, though I do not think it is relevant:

java.lang.ClassCastException: org.eclipse.osgi.internal.framework.EquinoxConfiguration$1 cannot be cast to java.lang.String

Sorry, this is certainly a duplicate of 445220

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=445220

I can circumvent the problem for now by following the advice there (export SWT_GTK3=1).
