I hope someone may be able to suggest a solution to my problem. Whenever I try to re-import or remove user libraries from my project my eclipse locks up and I have to reboot.

The only solution I have found that works is to remove one library at a time by right clicking project->buildpath->configure build path-> libraries tab -> add library->user library->user libraries button->select one old user lib and hit remove button->hit ok ->hit cancel->hit ok —-then do the whole process over again for all of the libraries. If i try to select all the libraries at once and hit remove it locks up forever apparently trying to build, if I try to just hit import libraries and overwrite existing ones it locks up as well. Please someone tell me this isnt the only way?!?

nullptr31,
I could not replicate this at my end. Can you give more information on this.
1. Can you copy and paste your installation details. You can get them from MyEclipse > Installation Summary > Installation Details.
2. Are there any errors logged in the log file located at workspace dir > .metadata > .log?

Hi Shalini,

Thanks for responding. My whole team is actually having this issue and there are 4 of us. After it hangs I have to end the task in the task manager and there are no errors in the log at that point. Upon restart here is a log file snippet:

Thanks for looking into this, this has majorly affected our productivity. Almost as bad as that javascript nature stuff that was getting into the .project file and slowing the whole app down.

It appears that this issue was due to how we were trying to configure our projects. We had multiple versions off the same project and all were trying to use the same user libraries with the same workspace. The user libraries needed to be changed in each project to point to the lib folder within that project, but that wasnt possible because user llibraries are per workspace setting not per project. So everytime we changed the user lib for the new project it would also change the other projects references.

We solved this by making a different workspace for each project and then making user libraries per workspace.

Glad to know you resolved the issue. Thanks for letting us know.
