I usually stumble upon complex business logic and get lost within the mist of the complex code. So i need to find were exactly i am in which i will go and see exactly which flow control, or branching, that led me in to the current statement. I remember JBuilder had a feature where it will give me a overlay over the editor showing exactly where I am, so does eclipse has such feature?

Do you mean while stepping through in the debugger?

What's usually the upper-left window are stack traces of all your
running threads. Clicking on any line in that will take you to the
source code if it exists.
