Decoration Calculation Error on Eclipse (STS)
When I try to open an xml file on STS I get an error.
The contents are as follows:
An internal error occurred during: "Decoration Calculation". org/springframework/tooling/boot/ls/xml/XMLRootElementContentDescriber2$QualifiedElement
When I looked at the log in the metadata, the following error message was output.
!ENTRY org.eclipse.jface 4 2 2020-12-24 20:20:29.699
!MESSAGE Problems occurred when invoking code from plug-in: "org.eclipse.jface".

What is the problem? The STS version is 4.3.2.
The solution for me was to remove the javascript label decoration by going to Windows - preferences - General - Apperance - Label Decorations and unchecking the Javascript override function indicator
Another possible solution might be running eclipse with the -clean option :
On Windows:
eclipse.exe -clean
This will clean you plug-ins cache which might resolve your issue
