Description rgra Missing name CLA 2012-07-06 08:40:02 EDT 
In previous versions of eclipse (last used in 3.6) it was possible to open the same java file twice, by opening it once and then selecting 'New Editor' in the context menu on the editor tab.

This entry is now missing in eclipse Juno.

Try Window>New Editor or CTRL+3 New Editor as a workaround.
