We are very pleased to report that this issue has been
resolved and the fix is being submitted for today's weekly
integration build.
Impact Assessment: Who is affected by this bug ?
------------------------------------------------
Vanilla IDE users are very unlikely to be affected.
You may be impacted if
- You are using 3.8 M3 or later as your build compiler AND
- Your build set up involves using the PDE/Build capabilities
to compile bundles in parallel (e.g ANT parallel tasks.)
(See PDE Guide > Tasks > PDE Build Advanced Topics)
Recommendation for impacted teams:
---------------------------------
(a) Upgrade your build environment compiler to a new fixed version
once it becomes available.
(b) Alternately, pass the -warn:-resource command line switch to
the compiler.
Thanks!
Srikanth.
