yesterday after few updates (some of them in java) the Eclipse lose ability to move it's menu to the global-menu bar.

I was try to remove/add different java from the ubuntu's repositories but it still not showing in the global-menu.

So my question is, what versions of java (including the sun's) supports globalmenu, i don't care what are licenses and other like that. Just I want global's menu back ;)

Thanks.

It's not the JVM, it's the GUI toolkit fault. A GUI toolkit is a set of api+libraries that enable apps to be drawn in the screen, think of them as a collection of widgets + a runtime for those.

Eclipse uses the SWT toolkit which looks and feel more natively than other Java toolkits (Swing, etc). The easy explanation for the lost is that the globalmenu binding have upgraded and SWT has not (yet) upgraded to support.
