[news.eclipse.platform] Re: Problem decorator in Project Explorer does n

[Maarten Meijer <mm105@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Amir,

I also work on an IDE based product where I need problem markers. When 
building and running against the IDE itself I see the markers, but when 
I run against my separate platfrom target: no markers.

I do have a problem with the label decorators, where they do not show if 
I have one set of validators turned on and do show when it is off.
So buggy code in the builder may prevent the markers from showing.

I think that problem marking is dependent on some internal code in 
JDT... :-(

Maybe we should file a bug

Where did you download your platform distro?
