Public bug reported: After upgrading to ubuntu 14.04 Eclipse is crashing just right after Content Assist popup is displayed.
When launching eclipse from console I get this: No bp log location saved, using default. [000:000] Browser XEmbed support present: 1 [000:000] Browser toolkit is Gtk2. [000:000] Using Gtk2 toolkit No bp log location saved, using default. [000:005] Warning(optionsfile.cc:47): Load: Could not open file, err=2 [000:005] No bp log location saved, using default.

However now in Content Assist I see style formatting text, e.g.: /* Font definitions */ html { font-family: 'Ubuntu',sans-serif; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; } body, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, p, table, td, caption, th, ul, ol, dl, li, dd, dt { font-size: 1em; } pre { font-family: monospace; } / * Margins */ body { overflow: auto; margin-top: 0px; margin- bottom: 0.5em; margin-left: 0.3em; margin-right: 0px; } h1 { margin-top: 0.3em; margin-bottom: 0.04em; } h2 { margin- top: 2em; margin-bottom: 0.25em; } h3 { margin-top: 1.7em; margin-bottom: 0.25em; } h4 { margin-top: 2em; margin- bottom: 0.3em; } h5 { margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; } p { margin-top: 1em; margin-bottom: 1em; } pre { margin-left: 0.6em; } ul { margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; } li { margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; } li p { margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; } ol { margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; } dl { margin-top: 0px; margin- bottom: 1em; } dt { margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; font-weight: bold; } dd { margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; } /* Styles and colors */ a:link { color: #0000FF; } a:hover { color: #000080; } a:visited { text-decoration: underline; } a.header:link { text-decoration: none; color: #313739 } a.header:visited { text-decoration: none; color: #313739 } a.header:hover { text-decoration: underline; color: #000080; } h4 { font-style: italic; } strong { font- weight: bold; } em { font-style: italic; } var { font-style: italic; } th { font-weight: bold; } PHPUnit_Framework_Assert::assertAttributeNotType(stri ng $expected, string $attributeName, mixed $classOrObject, string $message) </div> Deprecated.
