It should be easy to find the relavant threads, but gcj is just too
common a term, I guess.
The gist is that running Eclipse on gcj has frequently been the root of
many linux users' Eclipse problems - lots of bizarre behaviors that
ended up being resolved by forcing Eclipse to use the Sun JVM.
You can use Help > About Eclipse > Configuration Details to check the
java.vendor and java.version of the JVM Eclipse is running in.
If it is gcj, force Eclipse to a Sun JVM installation by following the
instructions on this wiki page: http://wiki.eclipse.org/Eclipse.ini
Hope this helps,
Eric

Is the Javadoc displayed in the Javadoc view? Any log entries?
