Eclipse type hierarchy stack overflow

I am repeatedly getting stack overflow errors on eclipse. It corresponds to adding Apache's PDFBox 2.0 to my build path and incorporating and modifying some code I found on SO. This eclipse bug report seems pertinent. I have tried refreshing, closing and reopening the project, deleting the .index files etc. Here is the eclipse log:

The last line is repeated many times.

While it is an acknowledged bug by Eclipse community, you can take the following workarounds:

1) Try to use a newer version of Eclipse (Oxygen or Neon).

2) Backup your projects from the workspace. Delete your workspace. Start Eclipse and let it create a new one. Then copy over your projects from backup to the new workspace.
