Eclipse suddenly silently refuses to compile (almost) any source files [message #176896] Thu, 26 October 2006 20:16 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Eclipse 3.2.1, running with JDK 1.5.0_09.

I've been using 3.2.1 for a while with no serious problems. Over the last
few days, I installed Mylar, and I've been playing with it. I've been
building my projects and running unit tests a lot.

About an hour ago, something must have broken, because Eclipse now refuses
to build anything, and reports no errors. It doesn't fail, it just
doesn't do anything. I select the "Build Project" operation, and the
watch cursor appears for a fraction of a second and goes away. The
"clean" operation appears to work, but when I build after that, I see the
"copying resources to output folder" dialog, then I see it compile 2-3
source files (the project has several thousand), then it jumps to
validating my bean contexts (I have the Spring IDE plugin), and then it's
done. It didn't compile most of the project.

When this started happening, I tried disabling the Mylar plugins, but that
had no effect.

I added the "-consolelog" command line option, but nothing shows up in the
console when I execute the build.

I'm at a loss here.

Try stopping eclipse and restarting it with a -clean parameter, rather
than just cleaning the project.

Are you certain there are no Build Path errors on any of your projects?
Errors with the Build Path (such as some dependent library not being
found) can halt the build for the project and any projects that depend
on it.
Generally, Build Path errors should show up on the Problems view, but I
would check the Build Path section of Properties for each project just
to make sure.

Hope this helps,
Eric
