I am able to do development using this eclipse configuration without having it crash, or need restarting more than about once every few days. I do find I must clean and rebuild the entire project about once a day still, or it seems to get confused and puts up spurious compilation errors that are not reproduced after a clean and build-all. -Mike Beckerle2016-06-

I found with this version I had to use the Eclipse update site to pull down/install Eclipse Java Development Tools (3.12.0.v20160606-1100 in order to get the tests to run using JUNIT4. -Taylor Wise

I
've found that this build of Neon.2 does not present with the JDT Weaving error. This error presents itself when you install the Scala IDE and goes away when you remove it. This is an error I encountered when Fedora updated Neon. I had to go and find/use and older build of 4.6.2 using the Eclipse website (not the one that comes with Fedora). It seems as though there are graphical errors. Sometimes the menu bar isn't in the right place or portions of the menu/screens will be cut-off. This can make it difficult to access certain features/buttons. I'm not sure if this is due to the fact I'm using Fedora 25 or if it's an actual issue with Eclipse. The version of Eclipse that comes through Fedora's software site does not present with the graphical issues. But when you go to add Scala to it you will receive the JDT Weaving error. The version of Eclipse that comes from Scala (Scala IDE 4.5.0) does not have the JDT Weaving error, but has graphical errors. -Taylor Wise
