ant script not executed [message #104881]

Hi!

I've a very weird problem with eclipse' ant build file support, I select the
script in the ant view and press the "play" button and eclipse starts its
internal compiler, I cancel and press the button again and build.xml is
executed. This happens all the time, the first time the internal compiler
is executed the second time ant.

I currently run 3.0-2 but also had the problem with 2.1. But: it once worked
with 2.1 and I don't remember to have changed anything at all.

Can somebody explain what I may do wrong?

Thanks a lot!
Timo

Is your build.xml file writing files to the workspace? This might cause a
build to occur.

The Ant launch delegate doesn't directly invoke builds.

Just found out that I lied. Check Window->Preferences->Debug and see if you
have the "Build (if required) before launching option" set. This option can
cause a build to occur when you launch a config of any kind.

Hmmm...well, yes, that works but it does no more build if required before
launching non-ant projects when running them :-\
