If you are not using native code this error theoretically cannot happen. If it happens the problem is in JRE itself. So, uninstall JRE, then install the latest version and try again.

If it error still happens try to simplify your code, but anyway JRE is not expected to crash. So, if it happens after re-installation try the same on other machine. Probably such experiment may help you to locate where the problem is.

In any case you are welcome to report the issue to Oracle. They will happy to fix the bug. :)
