Please help!

My computer is freezing for about 40 seconds whenever code completion starts. I am running the latest versions of Eclipse and MyEclipse. I also have WebLogic 9.1 installed, but this happens even if the server is not started.

For example,

I want to type:

System.out.println(“Hello”);

I type in System

The instant I hit the “.” (period), my PC freezes for about 40 seconds. Any ideas would be appreciated… I can’t get any work done.

Thanks!

hayedid,

If you have troubles with Java editor, then it’s eclipse, but no MyEclipse problem
However, i advice that you start empty workspace (set option when call eclipse
-data -<NEW_DIRECTORY_IN_YOR_FILE_SYSTEM>), make simple project and test your problem

What is your version Eclipse and MyEclipse ?

[hayedid]

Eclipse:
Version: 3.1.2
Build id: M20060118-1600

MyEclipse:
Version 4.1

I’ve started with a -clean and also tried an empty workspace. These do not resolve the issue.

hayedid,

Have you yet another plugins in eclipse (except MyEclipse) and what machine you have (processor, memory), please

The only plug-in I have is MyEclipse.

I have an HP xw4300 Workstation.
Pentium(R) Dual Processor 3.2Ghz
1.00 GB of RAM

Thank you.

hayedid,

It’s strange.Java editor is from eclipse distribution (it isn’t MyEclipse problem).
Do you have much projects with big sources and a lot libraries ?

When I started with a new workspace, the project I have is very small (21K Compiled). It is the only project in my workspace. I even tried completely reinstalling windows eclipse and myeclipse. This gave me a clean workspace. The problem still occurs.

hayedid,

I work on much slower machine and with big workspace, but haven’t such problems

What is your JDK (eclipse work with own compiler, but search JDK for source) ?

[hayedid]

Under Windows / Preferences / Java / Installed JRE’s, there are three listed:

c:\Program Files\Java\jre1.5.0
c:\bea\jrockit90_150_04
c:\bea\jdk150_04

I have tried switching among each of these, but it didn’t make any difference.

Try download jdk from sun and execute eclipse with ‘-vm <path to sunjdk>’

your problem is probably bea’s jdk/jre – your path after -vm can show to java executable (no JAVA_HOME or bin)
It is $JAVA_HOME/bin/java on linux and $JAVA_HOME/bin/javaw.exe (java.exe, i don’t sure) on windows

I’ve disabled the ‘Code Assist’. This has hidden the issue (I’ll certainly miss the code assist).

I tried the -vm argument with a SUN JDK. Didn’t make any difference.

Thank you for your help.

[Haris Peco]

you have bea jdk and sun jre, probably
do you download sun jdk, now and what are you set after -vm (if you type wrong system start with default jdk/jre)

your machine have to work perfect

Praise God! I finally figured it out. I had to start Eclipse with the following parameters:

C:\eclipse\eclipse.exe -Xms128M -Xmx512M -XX:PermSize=64M -XX:MaxPermSize=128M

Thank you for all your help!

I have just started to learn Java; as such, I have fresh installs of (pretty much) the latest release of the Sun JDK and JRE and of Eclipse (no MyEclipse; I’m hoping that doesn’t bother you 🙁 )
Anyway, I have this exact same issue, a temporary freeze a little while after the Code Complete list comes up. However, the command line parameters make no difference to this for me. Anybody have any ideas about this?
