    The MyEclipse XML editor loads documents slowly and then eventually locks up the IDE on my PC. While locked up, I see in my windows Task Manager that the processor a second javaw.exe process is demanding all of the processor’s attention.
    (Windows XP, j2re1.4.2_03, Version: 2.1.2 Build id: 200311030802)

    I’m guessing it could relates to either the VM version, or the fact that I’m also working on a Tomcat project configured with a separate Sysdeo Plugin. Any ideas?

    Trying to sell the rest of my team on MyEclipse, but it won’t happen without a fix for this bug!

    Ken,
    Which version of MyEclipse are you using? There is a known problem with RC1 (2.6.100) where a line ending with a quote will cause the XML editor to go into an infinate loop eating up all the processor time. Is this XML file you are opening well formed? How large is it? Can you try and open a well formed XML file (for example, the server.xml file from your Tomcat installation) and see if it opens fine?

    The install program reads “EnterpriseWorkbenchInstaller_020700RC1.exe”. It’s a fairly recent download. I’ve uninstalled Eclipse entirely for the moment, thinking I’ll try an install of the latest (and possibly work without Sysdeo). I guess I’ll download MyEclipse again as well. I’ll let you know. Any additional thoughts would be appreciated.

    Ken,
    My suggestion would be to upgrade to the RC2 release, and reinstall and see if that fixes the problem. As I mentioned, the XML editor in RC1 had a few nasty bugs that got fixed in RC2.

    Let me know if that works for you.

    Thanks. The RC2 seems to be working great so far. I reinstalled everything (Eclipse and ME) without Sysdeo plugin this time, which may have helped as well. Gotta get the others on my team to dump Sysdeo in favor of MyEclipse. JSP validation and struts support is a great advantage.

    I’m glad to hear its working for you now. Admitedly having the XML editor lockup eclipse on you is not a great first impression 😉

    Come back if you need help with anything else.
