I was working on my Macbook, when my battery ran out. Now Eclipse refuses to start, getting stuck on "Loading Workbench". The stacktrace in the bottom is from pressing ^C after a minute or so of hanging.

Any ideas? I guess I will try installing JavaHL if there are no other suggestions. Eclipse always complained about it, but it always started up before.
Yup, JavaHL was the likely cuprit as installing it solved the problem. It's still odd that Eclipse never hung before due to this reason, but after a crash, it did.
