I can open a file in exclipse, but is there any syntax to jump to a specific line?
VI can do this by
vi -c LINE filename

Not exactly the right answer, but for Java file, you can use the package explorer, or the outline view, useful to select a group of lines) and open the file to the line matching a Java element (class, method, variable, ...)
Once the file is already opened, CTRL+L is the way to go to a line of the currently edited file, as Adi mentions in the comment.
CTRL+SHIFT+R (Open Resource) or CTRL+SHIFT+T (Open Type, for classes only)
Type the name / the start of the name / the first letters of a camel case name
CTRL+L (Go to line)
Hmm. For me it works on Windows as simple as
eclipse.exe path\filename.ext:42
(I was actually looking for a consistent solution across IDEs.
Pycharm offers pycharm.exe path:number as well but it does not seem to work :/)
Try
eclipse.exe file.txt:22
for newer versions of eclipse, and
eclipse.exe file.txt+178
for older ones.
Continuing from @raho's response, the complete menu path is: Window -> Preferences -> General -> Keys
This won't work on c++ as far as I can tell.
