| Java Perspective broken after Eclipse update! [message #870030] |

Hello,
I am very disappointed in Eclipse. I am running 3.7.2 on Ubuntu Linux. Everything was working fine, until I foolishly today decided to update some packages - by clicking Help > Check for updates. My eclipse updated, then rebooted, and now the Java perspective doesn't work at all! It does no syntax highlighting, auto-completion, or anything like that. In fact it looks like a plain old text editor. I don't understand what is the point of using Eclipse IDE, if it now looks like a text editor, after they fucked up their update process??
Thank you,
Igor

You may have inadvertently opened the file in the generic text editor.
Close the file, right click on it in the Package Explorer, select Open
with, select Java Editor.

No buddy, that's not it. When I right-click on the file and select 'open with', I get:
-text editor
-system editor
-default editor.
Java is nowhere to be seen anymore. In fact, my Android perspective doesn't work anymore either. I think this Eclipse update is totally fucked up. I guess I will have to uninstall and reinstall Eclipse entirely. I really wish their team would do more unit and regression testing before releasing such a fucked up update.
