I installed Eclipse 4.7.3 then updated to 4.7.3a, I am using Oracle JDK 1.8.0_161 or 1.8.0_162(I am not perfectly sure as now I am on different machine)

More information about what causes this problem is needed. I just tracked down a problem with a similar description, but without more details it is hard to tell if this bug is resolved too.

If it is the same, this is a duplicate of Bug 563443 - but a workaround being developed for CDT 9.11 in Bug 563455.
