Eclipse hangs on loading workbench

Question

My eclipse stops loading workbench. I tried already starting with ./eclipse --clean

When starting from console it throws following exception:

java.lang         


        

Answer 1

./eclipse -clean -refresh

as mentioned in comment by sulai Dec 20 '12 at 12:46, that worked for me.

However, on the Mac OS X, I had to figure out how to get to ./eclipse

Here's the solution:

cd Eclipse.app/Contents/MacOS/
