i googled it and found a possible solution here that suggests : "A minimal workaround is to add -XX:LoopUnrollLimit=1 as an argument." the problem is i don't know where to add this argument and how to add it. can any one help me about it?

thanks.

EDIT : I updated my jdk from 1.7_9 to 1.7_40 but problem stands still.

Answer 1

In linux mint 16, for me, the solution was change the eclipse theme from GTK to Classic and write in eclipse.ini this:

-Dorg.eclipse.swt.browser.DefaultType=mozilla

Answer 2

i don't know if this solution applies to every one or not, but i managed to solve this by updating my eclipse from indigo to kepler.

Answer 3

This error log looks as mine that I received when I've tried to open the Eclipse Marketplace. The Eclipse simply closed after that. My OS is the Linux Mint Derbian and I'm working with Eclipse Luna 4.4.1. I found this tip on the Derbian's forum and it worked for me. Re: Eclipse Luna Crashed on XFCE

I add the line to eclipse/eclipse.in:

--launcher.GTK_version

Hope it works for you too.

Answer 4

The Erick Alves Answer works for me. I add the code

--launcher.GTK_version 2

then, below my eclipse.ini works.

--launcher.library
plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher.gtk.linux.x86_64_1.1.200.v20140603-1326
-product
