Happens during Java class editing and during other IDE operations, such as running a JUnit test class after editing. Makes IDE almost unusable since it happens almost every time something is happening with the source file.

This should fix that:

(updates for both Experimental Java Hints and Java Hints should be available on the update center fixing several bugs)
