copied!<p>I just rebooted my computer without changing anything. Suddenly I can't open eclipse.

What do I do now, how do I fix this ?</p> <hr> <p>For those unfortunate souls who can't get to <code>tinypic.com</code> from work :-)</p> <pre class="lang-none prettyprint-override"><code>┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ Eclipse │ ├──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤ │ │ │ A Java Runtime Environment (JRE) or Java Development Kit (JDK) │ │ must be available in order to run Eclipse.
