eclipse ought to work its a java application although I have no direct 
experience on NetBSD I've always found its ui so frustrating when I'm 
forced to use it that I'd never use it voluntarily (which covers all my 
NetBSD tools).

I'm also using openjdk8 successfully on 9.0/amd64 to run jenkins. I 
didn't have a lot of luck running jenkins on opendjk 11 but that could 
have been jenkins rather than openjdk11 and I've not had the time to 
revisit it since.
