Description Thomas Fitzsimmons 2005-12-20 16:53:58 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050922 Fedora/1.0.7-1.1.fc4 Firefox/1.0.7

Description of problem:
When building classpath, which uses custom builders, the console seems to be cleared randomly.  This makes it difficult to debug builds.  Ideally a new console would be created for each *set* of custom builders run and each new console would never be cleared.  When building autotooled projects, it is important to have context for the entire build.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
How it should work:

1. Check out Classpath
2. Project -> Build Project
3. (eclipse creates Console2 tab)
4. Console2 logs "ClasspathAutogen", "ClasspathBuildNative", "ClasspathCreateLocaleData" builders output, and never clears itself


Additional info:

Comment 1 Andrew Overholt 2005-12-20 16:55:04 UTC
This should be filed upstream.


Comment 2 Thomas Fitzsimmons 2005-12-20 17:25:48 UTC
Mirrored upstream.


Comment 3 Andrew Overholt 2006-02-03 16:09:01 UTC
From the upstream bug:

"By default consoles associated with terminated processes are removed when
another process is launched. This can be controlled by a preference. See
Preferences-Run/Debug/Remove terminated launches when a new launch is created."
