Java Eclipse SWT OSX bug - eclipse

So I researched a lot about this problem and haven't found anything useful for me yet.
It is mainly about this bug with:
[Java CocoaComponent compatibility mode]: Setting timeout for SWT to 0.100000
Which seems to be related to a bug Eclipse know themselves.
I have tried running Eclipse Indigo, Eclipse 4.2.1 and Eclipse 4.3 with the same result. I tried starting the Eclipse on the second thread as suggested by somewhere "-XStartThreadSecond"<--- something like that, but Eclipse dont recognize that anymore it seems. So maybe someone found a solution to this after so long time?
I am running OSX Mountain Lion, JRE 6, above Eclipse's and I also tried making JRE 7 work in my Eclipse, but the JRE 7 VM dont exist in the folder it should be(I Haven't installed anywhere else).

I had the same problem when I was using JFreeChart, however none of the solutions worked. Every time I tried to run java application that created a JFrame it crashed on a Mac.
However, I had realized that I have had included all libraries that came with JFreeChart in the Project build path. If you have the same problem, check your library under:
Project -> Properties -> Java Build Path -> Libraries
All you need are: jcommon-1.0.17.jar, and jfreechart-1.014.jar
If you are not using JFreeChart, still check your build path if you are using some conflicting libraries.
Cheers!

I had the same problem using JFreeChart with Eclipse on OSX. It seems adding only jcommon-1.0.17.jar and jfreechart-1.014.jar into your JAR reference path instead of the whole list of libraries is the solution.
Thanks

Eclipse doesn't find binaries in SW4STM32

I'm using workbench SW4STM32 in Eclipse Kepler for C/C++.
Software doesn't find binaries files when I try to debug it. It creates it while building a project, I'm sure of this 'cause I can see them and use in others programms. However it cannot locate them by itself. I rebuilded project many times, I've tried reinstalling workbench, MinGC and changing directory in project properties but neither helped. Have You ever encountered something like this?
Do You have any ideas?
I' ve solved it. It turned out I had some binary parsers missing.

Haskell Plugin on Eclipse is not visible

I'm learning Haskell and I need to install Haskell plugin on Eclipse.
I have first installed Eclipse Kepler and then installed the Haskell plugin from http://eclipsefp.sf.net/updates. The plugin installation went ok but the Haskell perspective is not visible at Window > Open Perspective > Other. It's visible at Help > Installation Details, though.
I've come across similar problem at this post:
Plugins installed on Eclipse not visible
I've applied all suggestions: I've started Eclipse as root, I've changed the installation path from /Applications to ~/, I've given write access to plugins folder, no luck.
I've erased Eclipse Kepler and installed Luna, still no luck.
I've updated the JRE to Java SE 7 [1.7.0_71] and edited the Java JRE section at Eclipse preferences, still no luck.
Any help is appreciated, thanks.
My OS X Lion 10.7.4 64bit
I've solved it. The problem seems to stem from multiple java versions installed on Lion.
I've come across this post salesforce Eclipse plugin and there I noticed that multiple Java versions on one system might cause trouble on plugins and in case of saleforce, that was causing trouble on Eclipse plugin or perspective.
Then I've taken a second look at Haskell's Eclipse plugin page Haskell Eclipse plugin and there I saw the java version 7 was emphasized.
So I reckoned that some java version mismatch might be causing Eclipse not to display the Haskell plugin. Btw, my installing the latest (1.7.0_72) version of java didn't change any possibel version mismatch on my Mac OS X, because though I successfully installed 1.7.0_72 version (using the file jdk-7u72-macosx-x64.dmg which I downloaded from oracle.com), the $ javac -version still returned 1.6.0_29.
Then I've found this post multiple java installations on mac os x and added the following line to eclipse.ini
-vm
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.7.0_72.jdk/Contents/Home/bin/java
before -vmargs, and that finally solved the problem. Now the Haskell plugin and perspective comes up. That's fine.

Eclipse Juno: Windows "Open File" dialog box does not work

I recently move to Eclipse Juno from Indigo. Although Juno works perfectly as far as my needs the windows "Open" dialog box does not load for some reason. For example, File/Open File does not work.
This is a problem across all places where we need to include a file like adding external JARs or any other place where files need to be added from a windows directory.
"Include Directory" does work where I need to get the directory included but the issue is only with file dialog box.
I have a Windows 7 64 bit and it’s a Eclipse with Java & CDT plug-in.
Reinstalling eclipse would be a last resort as I would need to re-configure 40+ projects again as we have a very peculiar setup here.
I did try to research this but hardly could find more details.. Any pointers to fix this issue will be greatly appreciated.
Edit:
Just wanted to add that tooltip does not work up when I hower mouse on the different icons/files ect, not sure if this is related but just wanted to mention.
Also, I tried updating my eclipse to Kepler but it still does not work, I am now wondering if my Windows 7 has something to do with this..?
I was able to finally resolve this based on research done in this Eclipse bug. My work machine still has java 1.6.0_26 and this release has a bug related to AWT.
I changed the eclipse's java version to 1.6.0_45 and this issue was resolved. I used -vm parameter in eclipse.ini file in to tell eclipse to use a different version.

Failed to create javafx flatform in netbeans

I got this error when I'm trying to create a Java Swing Application, by using Netbeans.
I really don't know how to fix this error. Internet did't give me a really good answer.
I Unistalled Netbeans & then reInstalled. but It doesn't work.
How can I fix this error. Thank you.
I don't have a NetBeans installation at hand, but have a look at your Java installations configured in NetBeans ("Java Platform Manager" in Tools menu?). Select the Java version you are using. There should be a JavaFX tab. I think you can disable it there, if you don't need it.
Note: If you're using the latest Java version from Oracle, then JavaFX should automatically be configured correctly, since JavaFX is now shipped with the JDK.

Eclipse randomly exits after installation of Blackberry plugin/SDK

Since adding the Blackberry Java classes from their website into eclipse, I've had it where eclipse will randomly close, with no discernible pattern, rhyme, error or reason. Here is the environment/software packages that I am using:
Windows XP SP2
Eclipse v3.5.1
Blackberry Java Plugin v1.1.1.200911111641-15
Blackberry Java SDK 4.5.0.21
I've tried the usual steps of complete uninstall and reinstallation of Eclipse and the accompanying plugins on multiple systems with the same configuration, including one that had a fresh install of Windows XP SP2. Upgrading to Eclipse 3.6 didn't work (the plugin wont' install as it's the wrong version), nor the downgrade to 3.4 for the same reason. I also increased the heap size to 512 (system has two gigs of memory) as some research into Eclipse doing this type of thing with Groovy was resolved that way, but again, no dice. Eclipse works great when the blackberry plugins are not installed, and no entries of errors or issues in the event log are helping to show what the issue with these plug-ins might be.
So if anyone has ran into this issue, and even better, has a solution, I'd love to hear about it. Thanks in advance.
EDIT: An additional to my issue, autoComplete with the Blackberry SDK seems to make this extremely unstable, like almost a guaranteed crash. Is this fixable at all?
For anyone that loads this question up trying to find a solution, I've never found a fix. It seems to be a bug with this version of the IDE. If there is a fix, please post.
Did you try to downgrade Eclipse to 3.4 (Ganymede)? I experienced similar issues when I tried upgrading Eclipse to something greater than 3.4.2.
I think the problem is with the plugin, not the IDE. Eclipse has always been stable for me until I installed the BB plugin. Since then it crashes all the time. Since I've installed the release (non-beta) version of the plugin that was recently released I can't even get my project to build.
This could be a manifestation of this bug in Eclipse. Check your C:\eclipse directory for files like hs_err_pidxxxx.log. The file goes on to explain this error:
#
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
#
# EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x753ba053, pid=3144, tid=5820
#
# JRE version: 6.0_20-b02
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (16.3-b01 mixed mode, sharing windows-x86 )
# Problematic frame:
# C [USP10.dll+0x1a053]
I've been experiencing this as well. It's completely debilitating. It causes Eclipse to just up and crash out of nowhere (and programming in a language as verbose as Java without Content-Assist is insane).
The bug has been fixed in Eclipse 3.6M7, but unfortunately I can't get the JDE Plug-in to install in the latest release candidate.
This is a known issue with Eclipse 3.5.X and has been fixed for 3.6.0
Bug Ticket link on Eclipse Bugzilla: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=283503
Looks like we are stuck with this until the next update to the BB Eclipse plugin.
