[news.eclipse.tools.jdt] Re: Reconcile-time markers question.

[Tom Eicher <eclipse@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Theodora,

In jdt-text land, reconcile time errors (and warnings) are not yet 
markers, but only annotations (see 
CompilationUnitDocumentProvider.ProblemAnnotation). The editor knows 
about these annotations and displays them as squiggly lines the same way 
as it does with markers.

Its only when a file is saved that the compiler (jdt-core) creates the 
markers, which are then shown in the problems view.

Does this help?
