Description arne anka CLA 2016-01-18 08:02:50 EST 
i have two open C++ projects in my otherwise pure Java workspace.
due to the dubious "feature" of building the whole workspace at the most inconvenient times and without any need, a "CDT Build Console" will appear.

this console cannot be closed or removed -- it stays until Eclipse is restarted.
every other console type that appears can be closed again, only this one stays for no apparent reason.

i expect a close button to get rid of it as i can do with others.

Still in latest CDT, and still exceptionally annoying. Can we please spend a small "x" to the console toolbar, like in most other Eclipse consoles?

Could you please add a screenshot of the CDT console, just want to see where the button appears.

I've added an item under Build: https://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/NewIn101#Build

Let me know if there is more to add / there is something to change.

Thanks Simeon. I made a small change (inlined and narrowed the image) to showcase the change.

Thanks again for these changes!
