Troubleshoot: OpenLaszlo editor hangs when editing a file

When using the OpenLaszlo editor with annotation analysis enabled, the editor might appear to hang when you are editing a file.

 

Problem

The OpenLaszlo editor has annotations analysis enabled by default. When editing a file such as adding new text, the editor might appear to hang while the annotations analysis is running. In some cases, the WebSphere Commerce Developer environment hangs but recovers after a few minutes.

 

Solution

To disable the annotation analysis, complete the following steps:

  1. Start WebSphere Commerce Developer.

  2. Click Window > Preferences > Workbench > Editors > Structured Text Editors.

  3. Clear the check box for Analyze annotations while typing.

  4. Click Apply and OK.
