Description Tiziano Leidi CLA 2006-06-13 10:05:45 EDT 
1) Managed Build C Projects Proj1, Proj2, Proj3
2) Proj1 import Proj2, Proj2 import Proj3, Proj3 import Proj1
3) do something in the workspace

every operation in the workspace (even outside Proj1/Proj2/Proj3, even on files that have nothing todo with CDT) causes autobild to start compilation.
Comment 1 Mikhail Sennikovsky CLA 2006-06-13 10:27:40 EDT 
There were some major changes and enhancements made in the Managed Build System build/rebuild mechanism and I can not reproduce the issue you describe with the current CVS HEAD CDT sources, so I'll mark this as fixed for now.

Please re-open if you see this issue happen with one of the latest CDT 3.1 nightly builds or with the CDT sources from CVS HEAD.
NOTE: CDT 3.1 requires eclipse 3.2

Comment 2 Tiziano Leidi CLA 2006-12-21 04:16:54 EST 
This bug is still present in CDT 3.1.1 !

if there is a cyclic import between two projects, Autobuild get nervous and react to most of workspace changes.
If the cyclic import is removed autobuild behaviour gets back to normality.
