Am quite new to Eclipse RCP Java and JACOB(java/COM bridge). I was trying to open a word file(already created "test.docx") from my RCP program. I have used jacob.jar(CLASSPATH) and jacob.ddl(PATH) for opening the file- I have followed the instructions in this tutorial. But when I run the program, word file pops up but suddenly gets crashed by the following error.
A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:

The crash happened outside the Java Virtual Machine in native code.
See problematic frame for where to report the bug.
I tried several options like changing workspace, deleting .metadata folder but I couldn't find a solution. Help will be highly appreciated.

Sorry guys. I found the problem. There was a version miss match. The .dll file I used was older version and some of the functionalities were deprecated.And that made the crash. if anyone using Jacob please refer to this for latest versions. Thank you
