I'm not yet sure how to trigger this, but I'm frequently experiencing odd this odd behavior while running my DSL as an eclipse application.

After doing some editing and saving the workspace will begin building over and over. It'll typically wait a second or two between each build. This is occurring with no additional editing.

Has anyone else experienced this? Any suggestions to try debugging?

Thanks!

Could be something like https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=486584 Or https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=486083

You can try to debug ProjectClasspathChangelistener. XtextBuilder and ClusteringBuilderState

Need professional support for Xtext, Xpand, EMF?

Ah, ok. Thank you for the pointers.

It sounds more like the infinite looping problem described in the second bug you linked.

I'll try disabling "Refresh using native hooks or polling" to see if it goes away.

If so, I'll try implementing your workaround as well.

Is that workaround pushed in a milestone release?

Thanks for the debugging tips as well. I let you know what I discover.
