Hi There,
A simple to answer question probably,

How does eclipse editor detects(shows red lines) errors immediately we type something wrong. Even though I don't compile the code it shows the errors. Does it do some regex eval or some background compilation?

It will be great if you can provide some idea or some reads.

Thanks,
Jose John

The model is updated when the underlying document changes. This is
called "reconcile" (see
org.eclipse.jdt.core.ICompilationUnit.reconcile(i*) for details) and
also reports problems that get detected while updating the model. The
Java editor does this in a background thread
