[eclipse-dev] Debug option to enable background build (work in progress)


In today's integration build (I20030820), there is work in progress support for doing auto-build in a background thread. It is turned off by default, but if you want to try it you can enable it by doing the following:

1) Copy the file eclipse\plugins\org.eclipse.core.resources_3.0.0\.options to eclipse\.options.
2) Edit the file, and set the following flags to true:

org.eclipse.core.resources/debug=true
org.eclipse.core.resources/build/background="">

3) Start eclipse with the "-debug" command line argument.

This support is still a work in progress, so use it at your own risk.  If you encounter problems, please enter a bug report in bugzilla against Platform Core.  It is likely that this feature will remain in debug mode in the 3.0 M3 build, and after that (if all goes well) it will be turned on permanently.  Enjoy!
