I'ce spent a few hours creating a short self contained example. To reproduce this bug. Run the following in debug in eclipse with a breakpoint as directed in the code.
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent; import java.awt.event.ActionListener; import javax.swing.JComboBox; import javax.swing.JFrame; public class WillCrash { public static void main(String[] args) { JComboBox<String> combo = new JComboBox<>(); JFrame jf = new JFrame(); jf.setExtendedState(JFrame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH); jf.getContentPane().add(combo); combo.addItem("Test 1"); combo.addItem("Test 2"); combo.addActionListener(new ActionListener() { @Override public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { //Put break point here to crash your system System.out.println("Test"); } }); jf.setVisible(true); jf.pack(); } } -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1355182 Title: Debugging in eclipse causing system crash To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/eclipse/+bug/1355182/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
