[news.eclipse.newcomer] Re: eclipse 3.3 has so many problems!!!!

["Jim" <standingbear@xxxxxxxxx>]

Ed, I apologize for my tone in the previous post.  I was just frustrated 
after struggling for a while.

I have been using JRE 5.0 for a long time, in fact, all my apps require JDK 
5 to run, so I don't think it is a problem with  the JRE version.

Now, I am facing many problems, including the code assistant that gives me 
absolutely no context suggestions...  any ideas?
