CTRL+C / CTRL+V don't work in Eclipse

Viewed 18859

It's a very weird behavior. My Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V keyboard shortcuts are not being called in my Juno Eclipse. I know it is somewhat broad... But I'm really lost. I'm using Ubuntu 12. Can it be a OS configuration issue?

Dave's fix of removing CTRL+C from eclipse preferences (Window->Preferences->General->Keys : filter for 'Ctrl+C', click 'Unbind Command') also worked for me. Thanks Dave!

The 'Copy' function continues to work, even though it is not listed in the preferences list.

Note I was running Eclipse 3.7.2 with CDT 8.0.2.201202111 on Ubuntu.

I had this issue when CAPS LOCK was on.
