Hi,
I have a problem with Eclipse when I try to start it I get an error message that says the following:
An error has occurred. See the log file /home/doudou/eclipse-workspace/.metadata/.log
I have installed Eclipse cpp version and after I added a couple plugins it started showing me this error message.
I do need both Java and C/C++ development tools and language support and also the modeling frameworks for my studies.
I do use Linux ( Manjaro) and download Eclipse from its repository and tried to reinstall but I still get the same error.

These errors all look related to the fact that javax.xml.bind has been removed from Java 11. You could avoid that by using Java 8 instead. You could add (or modify) two lines like this in your eclipse.ini to use an older JVM

-vm
C:/Program Files/Java/jdk1.8.0_121/jre/bin

Of course you'd use the path to the bin folder of an older JDK/JRE actually on your machine. Before sure to put it before -vmargs section in the eclipse.ini, on two separate lines; the the start of the file should work well.
