Description IH CLA 2002-02-22 13:25:13 EST 
I can no longer build my project.  When I attempt to build it says "The project 
was not build since it is inconsistant.  Refresh the project and then try 
rebuilding it".

I have refreshed from local serveral times and tried to build yeilding the same 
results.  I have closed eclipse, closed my project, opened my project, and 
drawn a pentegram on the floor in spilt chicken blood but nothing seems to let 
me get my project to rebuild. 

I am using eclipse 2002-02-14

inconsistent spelled it wrong =)  Could prevent others from finding this bug.
Comment 2 IH CLA 2002-02-22 16:32:51 EST 
Quick fix is to just rename your project.  It seems that renaming my project 
created a new one with the new name but also removed this inconsistent build 
problem on the old one.
Comment 3 Kent Johnson CLA 2002-02-25 11:02:05 EST 
This is likely caused by a dosbox/explorer with its current directory inside 
the bin directory.

Do you know if you were browsing the output directory?
Comment 4 Kent Johnson CLA 2002-02-25 12:48:56 EST 
To give users a better idea why the project could be inconsistent, I've changed 
the message to be:

The project was not built since it is inconsistent. Ensure no other tool is 
browsing the output directory, then refresh this project and try rebuilding it.
Comment 5 IH CLA 2002-02-25 22:32:03 EST 
It is quite possible that one of the other views within Eclipse was in my bin 
output directory.

Closing... the message change should make users look around.
