Eclipse Error: Could not open the editor: Editor could not be initialized.

[Ritesh Agrawal]

Hi,

I am getting the following error while trying to open a Java file in Eclipse 3.4 Ganymede.

I tried restarting eclipse with -clean option also. Even then the problem persists.

Here is the complete stack trace
