is there a workaround for installing Eclipse in MacbookPro running macOS 10.16 (Big Sur)

Question

I'm studying Spring and Hibernate and the IDE I'm using is Eclipse (after years of using IntelliJ) but the thing is, every time I attempt to install Eclipse ether by using the installer or just downloading Eclipse JEE I come a across an installation error and can't move forward.

Here is the stacktrace of the error. PS: I've been investigating and can't find anything related.
