Using eclipse
Version: Indigo Service Release 2
Build id: 20120216-1857
on Mac OSX 10.7.5
with viPlugin 2.10.0
for Java development
I regularly get 2 copies of the same file opened in the editor window in separate tabs. I have not been able to identify all cases (if there are multiple) when the second window is opened, but I have just identified one specific repeatable case: when I run debug on an open file, it opens a second instance of that file. However, it is not consistent across files. That is to say, for some files, if I run debug on that file, it opens another instance, and for some, it does not. The duplicate copies of the open file are kept in sync.
This of course is not the end of the world, but I'm curious if anyone else has seen this, and if there is any explanation or fix.
thanks,
Linus

Hi,
That often happens when the actual .class file is located in several
places in your IDE. What happens is that you may have the .java/.class
in a project in your workspace, but it may also be in a jar that you
have in your classpath or in the Debug launch's classpath. So the
debugger uses the one out of the launch classpath. But when you open it
explicitly you use the one out of your project.
