title: Eclipse error 'UseStringDeduplication'
body: <p>I installed a fresh Ubuntu 16.04 VM, Oracle JDK 7, and downloaded the latest Eclipse. But I am getting this error when I try to start Eclipse:</p>
  
  <pre><code>Unrecognized VM option 'UseStringDeduplication'
  Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
  Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.
  Gtk-Message: GtkDialog mapped without a transient parent. This is discouraged.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Why am I getting this error on a fresh install?  And is it a bad idea to remove that VM option?</p>
