What happens if you run (start) Eclipse from within a terminal?
It's the easiest way to find out what actually happens when you
observe that "nothing" happens. The command to do so should be

	% eclipse

if I remember correctly - I don't use Eclipse regularly anymore,
so my memory has started with garbage collection. ;-)

Do you also have the neccessary JDK components installed?

The integration of program menu entries and desktop shortcuts
depends on the desktop environment you're using. Which one is it?
(Note that starting Eclipse from a terminal is a comfortable
desktop-independent solution.)

Do you have installed the required components? You can find
an excellent description of how to get VirtualBox running on
a FreeBSD host in chapter 22.3. of the handbook:

https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/virtualization-host-virtualbox.html

Make sure you have all of this covered.
