debug tab loses focus on current stack location on refresh


Dan Miller (121) | asked Sep 09 '10, 9:08 a.m.
When I am in debugging mode, the debugging tab that shows my current stack trace will lose focus and collapse, thus stopping me from evaluating any values in the current file until I reselect the stack location I am on.

There are times where the window will refresh, focus lost, I navigate back to my stack location, click, and before I can even navigate out of the tab window, the focus is relost.

Other times, I will regain focus, go to my file and go to evaluate an expression, and once I start hitting the key sequence, the focus is lost again.

Needless to say, this bug does not make a debugging session easy.

Is there a work around?

I'm running RTC 2.0.0.2 iFix 03.

This wouldn't seem to be an RTC issue but a base Eclipse issue. RTC distributes with a full eclipse client enabled for Java development but support for the non-RTC features is through eclipse.org. You can start here:
