When you are running from the console window you should be
seeing output from JBuilder telling you which font it is
loading so you can tell which is causing the crash. Go the
to XP's Control Panel, select Fonts, and delete that font.

JBuilder caches the results of its first font scan (though
only written to disk upon normal exit), and does not do it
again.

JBuilderX Ent
Windows XP Home
896Mb Ram

When I select Tools | Preferences from the menu and then
select any of the
following

Browser | Look and Feel
UML
EJB Designer
Mobile Services

JBuilderX USUALLY crashes (exits). I ran JBuilderX from
command prompt with
verbose and it produced a log file, part of which I have
pasted in below.

It sounds as though this problem is similar to Sun's bug_id
4762039

However, how can it be a corrupt font if it doesn't crash
every time? I
reckon it crashes 90% of the time

Has anyone got any ideas.

Thanks

Thanks Bill,

I tried to cancel my post within a few minutes of posting as after an hour
of searching I finally found what I wanted as soon as I'd posted. I was
going to re-post with the solution this morning.

For clarity, I'll post the solution here, as JBuilderX seems a little
different from what you described :-

JBuilderX does not display the fonts

In order to display the fonts, you have to add

vmparam -Dsun.java2d.debugfonts=true

to jdk.config

Also, unlike some of the postings I found, which state that it is the next
font in alphabetic order which needs to be deleted, I found I had to delete
a few fonts either side of the last one displayed before it worked. I guess
this must be a threading issue.

Thanks again

Based on Your infos I have released this problem by me by the same
configuration(WinXPsp1, JB8ent/JB9ent).
I have changed jbuilder/jdk1.4/jre/bim/fontmanager.dll to one of the jdk
1.4.2_03-b02.
It works by me!!!
