Q: 

Eclipse steps through comments on undo

When I undo a sequence of steps in a Java editor in Eclipse 3.4.2, the cursor skips over a bunch of comments unrelated to any change - only the method comments (eg. /**), not inline comments.

Does this happen to anyone else? Any solutions to stop it?

+1  A: 

stop editing your source code while debugging ;)

Thanks but I'm not debugging.

oh, sorry.I'm using eclipse 3.3.2 and my editors started showing occasional flakey behaviour, too. I learned to stop editing these files the hard way, because once that happens any further changes will only set actual code and displayed code further apart. Just close the editor and open it again.

A: 

Doesn't happen on Eclipse 3.6 so accepting this to close it
