I was facing the same issue too, and later i realised that I didn't install all the contents to /Applications/eclipse. Never initiate the process by copying just the eclipse.app file into applications. That's what is making the app to crash.

You need to copy all of the contents found alongside Eclipse.app, like plugins/, features/, configuration/, etc

As a quick workaround, you can try invoking the app from where it had been unzipped.
