eclipse 3.3.2 crashes on project right-click on java-6-openjdk and java-6-sun, but not java-1.5.0-sun (Hardy regression - libxcb.so)

I can tentatively state that the OpenJDK updates today (6b09-0ubuntu1 - Tues April 15) have fixed this problem, we'll see whether this bug returns after a day of work usage in eclipse.

Nope, this is still an issue. An serious one at that.

do you see the same with the eclipse package as found in hardy?

No, the same bug doesn't appear in the eclipse 3.2.2 in hardy (with limited testing)

The newest openjdk build (6b09-0ubuntu2) changed the "problematic frame" entry, but the crash behavior hasn't changed.

Aborted (core dumped)

I just updated to ubuntu 8.04 hardy. Went to load my eclipse, and I got this. I have tried sun-Java-6 and sun-Java-1.5 and gcj-java all with the same error.

This bug really sucks. Has anybody found a workaround to get eclipse running.

Hi,
eclipse crashes while using svn update

"A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
  Program consistently fails in 64-bit jvm (client & server) but works in 32-bit jvm. Get access violation in hotspot compiler thread (but reported as "outside the jvm in native code" - I think incorrectly)."

please recheck with openjdk-6 in intrepid, or openjdk-6 6b09dfsg-0ubuntu2~ppa1 in the openjdk PPA.

no joy with openjdk-6...

Here's my 50cents:

Problem perrsists with:
 OpenJDK package 6b10-0ubuntu1~ppa3

/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-openjdk/bin/java -version
  java version "1.6.0"
  OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0-b10)
  OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.6.0-b10, mixed mode)

and Ganymede RC2
  Version: 3.4.0
  Build id: I20080523-0100

works fine with java 1.5.0
java -version
  java version "1.5.0_15"
  Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_15-b04)
  Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.5.0_15-b04, mixed mode)

--adrian

I had the same problem. Then I turned off 'Build Automatically'. And it works without crashing!

Thanks guys for the suggestion to copy in the libjvm.so from jdk-7- seems to have done the job for now.
I am using CDT 5 inside eclipse Ganymede with about 6 projects and as of yesterday one project decided to crash the system with the unexpected error in libjvm.so. I think it was the action of the C++ indexer kicking in that would eventually crash the system reproduceably.

This bug should be fixed with jdk 1.6u10 b28 (download from http://download.java.net/jdk6/binaries/ , file called jdk-6u10-rc-bin-b28-linux-amd64-21_jul_2008.bin).

You can create a package using a patched version of java-package (I've made one you can download from http://diuf.unifr.ch/pai/people/broccoa/jpkg/ ... install the deb and then run make-jpkg jdk-6u10-rc-bin-b28-linux-amd64-21_jul_2008.bin , install the resulting deb file, and run update-alternatives --config java )

I'm working with Eclipse 3.3.2 and it seems stable (previously I had to use IBM JVM because of this bug)

Thank you, Amos. I'm running 8.04 and your post was the best way to get an updated Java. My Eclipse seems much more stable now.

I have a little bit similar problems with eclipse 3.4 when working with openjdk 1.6.0.
When Eclipse starts and I press New->Project->C++ it crashes:

When I use Sun Java(TM) Runtime Environment (JRE) 6 it goes without error.
I will wait for jdk 1.6u10 b28. I hope it will fix also my problem.
