Description Tod Creasey CLA 2002-08-26 13:58:19 EDT
2.0.1 version 20020826

When I start up the latest Eclipse there is no ECLIPSE_HOME entry. If I then 
try and add it in the Java Classpath Variables dialog it will ask me to 
rebuild but then throw away the new Entry.

STEPS
1) Start up with an empty workspace
2) Go to Preferences->Java-> Classpath Variables
3) See there is no ECLIPSE_HOME
4) Enter a new entry for ECLIPSE_HOME (the eclipse directory of your install)
5) Hit OK - you are asked about a full build
6) Your entry is removed after the build.

Note - if you choose not to build you do not lose the entry.
Comment 2 Tod Creasey CLA 2002-08-26 14:50:37 EDT
This was also a problem in 2.0.
Comment 3 Jerome Lanneluc CLA 2002-09-27 11:22:18 EDT
JavaModelManager.Variables was left to "Variable Initialization In Progress" 
and was relying on the preference change listener to update.

Fixed.

Verified.
