Description Markus Keller CLA 2007-10-17 11:35:12 EDT

The builder infrastructure should protect itself from misbehaving scheduling rules that cause interruptible builders to loop endlessly (e.g. the one from bug 203058 comment 6 to 9). It could e.g. only accept at most 5 repeated interruptions from the same scheduling rule and then log a warning and discard further interruptions until a build has finished.

Bug 203058 comment 10 and bug 89301 comment 20 indicate that builder implementors don't want to make use of IncrementalProjectBuilder#isInterrupted() because of this problem.
Comment 1 Markus Keller CLA 2008-12-04 12:25:55 EST
This bug is blocking JDT/Core from using IncrementalProjectBuilder.isInterrupted() because they fear that broken third-party plugins could shed a bad light on the Java builder.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.

Roland, do you know if there is already a feature request for this in JDT core?

I think you mean a different 'Roland'.

Roland Grunberg, which I also cc'ed to the bug.

This would result in a much faster user flow in JDT, currently the user actions are blocked during a JDT build.
