Can't launch Eclipse on Ubuntu Mate 16.04

[Med_Medin]

I upgraded my Ubuntu 15.10 to 16.04, the upgrade process completed without errors, but when i tried to launch Eclipse with SWT_GTK3=0 or Oomph installer or any SWT based application, they start in the background and are killed automatically, on the other hand i can successfully launch application based on Swing like NetBeans. I want really to use Eclipse with gtk2 because with gtk3 it is ugly with big icons and big tabs and really slow and not ready for use for current moment.

My current configuration is:
OpenJDK:
openjdk version “1.8.0_01-internal”
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_01-internal-b15)
OpenJDK Server VM (build 25.01-b15, mixed mode)

Ubuntu:
Linux Ubuntu Mate 16.04 (kernel 4.4.0-14)

Eclipse Problems on MATE

Hello guys, This is my very first time to install an ubuntu distribution on my pc. I installed Ubuntu 16.04 mate. I'm having a problem with my Eclipse java development environment. When I create a class in my java project, the wizard does not complete creating the class and does not terminate with any error...it 'hangs' until i terminate it via the terminal. What should I do?
