Bug 9737 Invalid thread access initializing JavaPlugin
Reported: 2002-02-13 14:25:11 | Status: verified fixed

Build 20020212 - I opened a self hosting workspace from the previous build, with only the resources perspective operation - The default installed JRE was a J9 VM - I caused a build to happen, and it looks like the PDE builder caused a whole chain of plugin activations, including JavaPlugin (strange that a core plugin caused a UI plugin to load). - JavaPlugin initialization tries to access the Display, but is in the wrong thread so it fails to activate. Stack trace: 4 org.eclipse.core.runtime 2 Plugin org.eclipse.jdt.ui was unable to instantiate class org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.JavaPlugin. java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException:
