Fix race condition in RCPTestWorkbenchAdvisor with CountDownLatch synchronization
The flaky test was caused by a race condition in RCPTestWorkbenchAdvisor.java. The test spawns 4 background threads during preStartup() that schedule async/sync runnables on the display. However, there was no guarantee these runnables would execute before postStartup() marked the workbench as "started" (by setting started = true). This meant asyncWithDisplayAccess could still be null when the test assertions ran, causing intermittent failures. This change adds a CountDownLatch to ensure all 4 async/sync operations complete before marking the workbench as started. Key changes to RCPTestWorkbenchAdvisor.java: - Added CountDownLatch field initialized as a constant with count of 4 - Added proper imports for CountDownLatch and TimeUnit - Simplified Boolean assignments to use !isSTARTED() directly - Added finally blocks in setupSyncDisplayThread() and setupAsyncDisplayThread() to call asyncLatch.countDown() - Modified postStartup() to await latch completion with 5-second timeout - Replaced warning logs with AssertionError on timeout and RuntimeException on interruption to ensure test failures are explicit Also bumps version of org.eclipse.ui.tests.harness for 4.38 stream. Fixes #1517 🤖 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]>
