Build a project when another is closed [message #632338]

Hi

I have my own builder (extends IncrementalProjectBuilder) that uses the project references described in the .project files.

I want to show an error on a project whenever a referenced project is missing / closed / deleted / etc.

At first my builder was not invoked when a required project was closed.

I found that using the forgetLastBuiltState() method made the platform call my builder. But doing this, my builder is invoked too often : when the .project file of a single project is modified, all the projects of the workspace are rebuilt with the FULL_BUILD kind.

Is it the "good" way to achieve this ? Does anybody know another way ?

The trick is to mind what projects you return from IncrementalProjectBuilder.build call. Make sure that you return all projects you want to notified about.

My build method now returns :
getProject().getReferencedProjects();.

Works well !
Thanks for this answer.
