Eclipse ADT Bundle crashes suddenly on Mint 16 Petra


I recently installed Linux Mint 16 Petra (Cinnamon 64 bit) on my laptop (Quad core, 8 GB ram).

I downloaded ADT Bundle for Linux (64 bit). As I start to use Eclipse for coding in Android, I notice that Eclipse suddenly crashes. I don't get any log error, it just crashes. It's happening frequently.

Why does it crash?


Solution

  • I found a solution right here on stackoverflow.

    Eclipse continue crashing

    For a workaround add the following to the end of your eclipse.ini

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