Closed marcdownie closed 10 years ago

marcdownie commented 10 years ago

On linux with the default launch script and Processing-2.2.1 pressing any key in the Processing window immediately crashes the JVM:

#
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
#
#  Internal Error (constantPoolOop.hpp:372), pid=14134, tid=139721206454016
#  guarantee(tag_at(which).is_klass()) failed: Corrupted constant pool
#
# JRE version: OpenJDK Runtime Environment (7.0_55-b14) (build 1.7.0_55-b14)

Fix is to edit your Field launch script to point at a 1.8 VM (or set your system default to be 1.8).

e.g.

change /usr/bin/java to /usr/lib/jvm/jdk1.8.0_20/bin/java
