This is a weird one which is difficult to reproduce as it happens occasionally but I've had this happen to me a few times on separate installations of Eclipse and on both Windows and Linux. Whenever I make a new Java class or interface by right-clicking the package, and without specifying the actual generic type parameters, if I do this more than once (i.e. I try to create two classes or interfaces which extend the base class or interface) then I get high CPU usage, a brief freeze followed by Eclipse suddenly quitting. There are no warnings, Not Responding messages - just an abrupt termination, almost akin to System.exi or manually killing the process. I checked the log file to see if there is anything and sure enough, this is what came out at the time of the crash: !ENTRY org.eclipse.recommenders.completion.rcp 4 11 2018-12-08 19:57:25.439 !MESSAGE

code recommenders failed to instantiate their extension. Seeing failure to find class javax/annotation/PostConstruct could indicate a Java 9 issue, but Eclipse 4.9 sure shouldn't have that problem.
I should mention that I'm using JDK 11.0.1 to run Eclipse but the projects in my workspace use Java 8 (1.8.0_192)
