Question

Is anyone else having frequent frozen editor problems?

My editor freezes on me every day, at least once, and sometimes a lot more. Today it's happened 4 times. I never know when it's going to happen, but it seems to happen more often when I'm working on large files with a mix of cfscript, cftags and html syntax. To get back to work, I have to close the eclipse window, sometimes clicking the close box 2 or 3 times, then force quit the eclipse process from the task manager, and then I can restart eclipse.

I'm running Windows 7 (x64), eclipse 3.5.1 build M20090917-0800  (x32) and ColdFusion Builder 1.0.0.263215

I cannot start without errors that show up in my log, even after I clear it.

I attached my log file.

We have fixed a couple of freeze issues repoerted in Beta3 build.

Looking at the log file you attached, it is not clear what the problem could be. However a few stack traces obtained when CFB is not responding will help us debug the problem. You can get more information about getting stack traces of CFB at http://blogs.adobe.com/cfbuilder/2009/12/reporting_one-off_issues_with.html

One question for you - do you normally open files for editing in CFB from projects in Navigator or from RDS file view?

I open files from the Navigator, but I'm don't know if I'm looking at the RDS File View. How can I tell? When I click on the view menu button in the Navigator frame, I see Select Working Set, Deselect Working Set, Sort, Filter, and Link With Editor. Not sure if that helps.

Just happened again... I attached a dump file created from http://www.adaptj.com/main/download. Not sure if this is exactly what you need because I couldn't figure out what Process ID the eclipse process was running with. So I had the dump program do all of them, but it wasn't really done... seemed to stall out waiting for me to save the file. So this could be an incomplete file.

In the future, how would I figure out what process to dump?

Yep, I had this a lot on Windows 7.  The current public beta (is it B3?) of CFB was unusable for me.  B2 was better, but I think it will have expired by now.
