RE: [cdt-dev] Debugging toolchain definitions

Hi,

if you think ResourceDeltaFactory#computeDelta() is wrong, please file a
bug against Platform/Resources.
CDT has nothing to do with it.

On the other hand, I don't think the resource deltas are the root of
your issues.
As far as I know (which is not much), the internal builder relies on the
indexer to compute dependencies, ie. if the index is incomplete or
wrong, the internal builder won't resolve dependencies correctly.
Maybe you can elaborate your exact use case a little and/or provide a
sample project.
