Eclipse running previous programs - eclipse

I have a problem running programs on eclipse. It's not running any new program.It's stuck on few last projects I previously ran. Overtime I'm trying to run a new program it runs another program that I'm done working on. I don't know what's causing it. I tried everything in my knowledge but nothing seems to be useful. If anyone can help me, I would very much appreciate it.

Don't click on Run button in eclipse it sometime run the cached program i.e., already runned programmedIt is not a good practicebeing a experienced eclipse user I can advise you to try to right click on your program after saving it then click Run As option and further option(optoin vary like in JSE program it shows java Application and in JEE program it shows server option)hope you will try this and it can solve your problem

Eclipse does not recognize my changes in src folder, throws the same error

I'm having a hard time using eclipse because of the following issue.
It goes like this. I'll code and try to run it. Then, it will throw some errors (of any kind). And so, after I have changed a part of the code, comment out which codes I suspect makes the error, or delete something, I then restart the websphere application server in order to republish my work. Next is to test my work using SoapUI then all of a sudden eclipse throws an error which is the same as before. I've tried to search in here answers to this questions but it involves codes which don't need in my project and also answers that I can't understand well (since I am very new to programming). However, I have found a way to resolve this but it's very inconvenient. To be able for eclipse to detect changes in the src folder, I should restart eclipse after editing my codes then remove my project in the server, start the server and then publish my work in websphere all over again. It solves my problem but I do all of these stuff every now and then even if I only comment out a single line in the code. What I want is to avoid doing this process of resolving the issue since it consumes so much of my time whenever I republish the project in the server.
Can somebody help me with this? Any suggestions would be very helpful. Thanks a lot!
It is a bit strange that you need to restart eclipse. The normal way would be to just re run your application server.
Try only he 3 second steps you mentioned (remove my project in the server, start the server and then publish my work in websphere) and if that works try again without removing the project. Just restart the servers.
And let us know if that worked!

How can I debug why eclipse won't start?

I've been having trouble getting a weblogic server to run in eclipse, which have resulted in me not being able to open eclipse ni my current workspace at all. It is not my first attempt to work with weblogic servers in eclipse, and I do not know why it suddenly decided to stop working. I have had multiple errors, which all seem to be related to an abnormal high memory consumption.
One of my last errors, before eclipse quit on me for good, was an out of memory exception, on PermGenSpace. I set variables to 1024m, but it still complained it wasn't enough. After a lot of restarts, Eclipse suddenly wouldn't open my current workspace. I have tried others, and they work fine, but with my current one, the splash/loading screen disappears after about 10% of the loading bar is complete, and nothing happens at all. Except the fact that eclipse.exe shows up in the running processes tab on Windows task list. It does not show in the running programs list.
My attempts to start weblogic servers had the exact same symptoms. They showed in the process list, but did not respond when I tried to open the console in my browser.
Both eclipse and the weblogic tasks (shown as java.exe) has had over 400.000KB of memory consumption each, which I find very high.
I do not expect anyone to be able to find a complete solution here, but I am absolutely stuck. I cannot access any of my previous error messages. I have no experience debugging an error like this. Does anyone have any idea on how to find the error in a case like this?
My Weblogic version is 10.3.2, which is a company standard for now.
My Eclipse version is:
Eclipse Java EE IDE for Web Developers.
Version: Kepler Service Release 2
Build id: 20140224-0627
Adding the comment as an answer since it provided some help.
Try starting up to a new empty workspace; If you dont get to select workspace at startup use the argument "-data " If you still get issues, look at the log in /.metadata/.log

Netbeans only slow when copying and pasting?

My Netbeans has been insanely fast for over 2 years, until this morning. Something strange, however, is now happening. Every time i press "copy and paste" ... so CTRL-C, it goes slow. This is what I see:
So, the moment I press CTRL-C, that shows in the bottom, my entire machines goes into super slow mode, and then 5 seconds later it stops.
I've considered maybe there's a keylogger on my machine, but can't find anything. And it's only slow when I copy and paste from Netbeans, nothing else. Maybe Netbeans is sending data out some other way?
Any ideas why Netbeans would just go slow like this?
UPDATE
I only have one project open
I've disabled the git and subversion plugins
I am working on a Laravel project
It's slow when I copy from a VIEW or when I copy from a CONTROLLER (I know css files often go a bit slow because of Parsing, so I figured mentioning this is probably worthwhile)
I followed the advice at the end of this article: here and uninstalled "BlueStacks". Problem solved.
UPDATE
Just in case the article gets deleted, here is the advice the user gives on that page:
I meet the same problem. When I copy a word in the IDE, the IDE does not response until 2 or 3 seconds. I did not confront this problem until few days ago. I try to use the latest netbeans and the latest jdk, but that does not work. Then I find someone said http://bugs.java.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=5078787 is the problem. And the problem is somewhat about the COM in windows. So I try to install the netbeans to another Win7 PC, and the problem is gone. In that case, I guess the problem is not the netbeans, but some other application in windows. Later I uninstall some of the application I just installed few days ago. And the IDE works right now. The applications I uninstalled is "imc studio" "imc license manager" and "blueStacks" an android simulator. I guess these application may have influence to the COM of Win7. Hope my solution will help to this bug.
You can also just stop the BlueStacks Agent process from Task Manager while you're using NetBeans.

SWbot testcases hanging in jenkins build

Followed the instructions given over here http://wiki.eclipse.org/SWTBot/Automate_test_execution#On_Jenkins and successfully did the integration were the swtbot testcases worked fine but now all of sudden after adding few more swtbot testcases it started hanging and completely stopped working!
Things which I tried till now are,
-> Ran the testcases in Linux local server which passes without any issue but the same in jenkins hangs now.
-> Changing Xvfb process to Xvnc -> Still same issue, build hangs
-> Commented all swtbot testcase and added simple test like creating a project which works fine without any issues.
-> Changed the jenkins server to new slave to make sure if it's DISPLAY issue but again same problem in the new slave.
-> Used NX Client to track the UI flow which happen in jenkins server via sandbox build but fails with widget not found exception.
-> Used upgraded SWTBot plugin but no help
Mailed to swtbot-dev#eclipse.org 4 days back but no reply still! Can someone please help me in this asap? Not sure what else to try with to resolve this problem now.
Thanks.
When you connect via VNC, try checking out if there's not any other modal window hiding behind the Eclipse workbench. We used to have problems especially with the "Usage data" window.
Found the issue finally and fixed the problem!
Our testcases involves checking the shortcut keys which are meant for table operations such as, inserting a new row - insert key, delete a row - delete key and so on..
It seems that when swtbot executes the keystroke as,
bot.shell("").pressShortcut(Keystrokes.DELETE);
it makes the entire eclipse to hang. Am still not sure what is the reason behind it, so replaced DELETE with CTRL + Q key combination in our implementation code and then it started working fine.
Eclipse hangs even when some keystroke is added in the testcase which doesn't do any ui operations. So, did those cleanup and all the testcases are passing now :)
Seems to be a another limitation in swtbot and hope that development team will analyze this further if possible. Already have posted it in eclipse community as well. http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/m/1234514/#msg_1234514
Thanks to Cpt. Senkfuss and Lula for your suggestions!!

Eclipse hangs while debugging

I searched lot about this topics but can't find a proper solution.
I am using eclipse 3.6 Helios version with operating system fedora15. In my application I am using GWT2.4 for front end development.
Now while I work with debug mode and want to debug at some point at the same time eclipse hangs for 3-4 mins.It resumes after and again start to debug process.
I am using this eclipse from last 3 years with windows but not faced this issue.In fedora I am using it from last 4 months and this problems stated to occur from last one month.
I am not getting what is the issues with eclipse.
Please help me out.
Thanks in advance.
Is this something that happens with different projects/code, or is it the same code that causes freezes? I've had issues where threads have started in the background and caused problems.
You say "(...) hangs for 3-4 mins.It resumes after and again start to debug process.", what do you mean? Does it continue to debug and move to the next line, or is there a crash and it restarts?
How long has it been since you changed workspace? I've found this, rather than the Eclipse installation, to be an issue over time. Create a new workspace folder, export all your projects and preferences and start fresh.
You are using GWT 2.4 and I think you might be working with UI.xml too... There is a tag in each ui.xml at the top like
<!DOCTYPE ui:UiBinder SYSTEM "http://dl.google.com/gwt/DTD/xhtml.ent">
Which means eclipse is going to get that xhtml.ent file each time and there is a issue in GWT eclipse plugin have a look to below link
http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/issues/detail?id=5265
There is one comment which says
For me, removing
SYSTEM "http://dl.google.com/gwt/DTD/xhtml.ent"
and saving the document,
solves the problem..
maybe it is needed for something, so better you copy that locally somewhere, and link that.
Try it out and let me know.
I had experienced the exact same problem on a less-powerful notebook I had to use.
Try one of the following
Download the latest Eclipse version (It needs, just as helios, a lot of RAM and CPU because it's based on a new "architekture", in contrast to, for instance, galileo)
Make sure you are using the latest JDK and JRE
Download Eclipse Galileo, which does require pretty less resources and goes still very very fine with most projects!
It sounds like you are experiencing the features of the latest Eclipse arch. In the latest versions of Eclipse I have noticed that the more plugins and add-ons you have installed, the slower the environment runs. There are a lot of similar posts regarding performance on the new platform
I have removed all but the plugins I am using and never install anything not needed into the Eclipse environment.
I "may" have experience this. Not sure. Suddenly started working again. I was getting a hang every time I would try to debug an app, in the part of the code (inside GWT) that creates a "table" element. Could be that there is something that just takes a while and you just have to "wait it out" the when it happens. Go get a cup of coffee, type thing. anyway I HAD stepped deep into the GWT code, plenty so I'm convinced it IS a GWT issue of some kind.
I was thinking it was some infinite recursion possibly in the logging system (like logger code accidentally trying to log itself, and going into loop?). Also there's a 50/50 chance that it was simply clicking on 'run' instead of 'debug' made it start working again. So at least try that if you have problems. My gut instinct and 30yrs programming under my belt tells me it's logger related. I can rule out "slow computers" because I never had this happen until I got a new machien which is Dell XPS, Core i7, 8 GB ram, and massive disk. So I wouldn't blame hardware, or Eclipse bloat.
