I have an Eclipse workspace where a CDT project lives together with other unrelated projects. However, when I run “build as Ant build” in one of those projects, CDT insists on rebuilding its projects too.
Anyone have any ideas where to look to disconnect this “hidden” dependency? (And no, it’s not in the “Linked Resources” or the “Project References”…)
The workspace wide build was actually caused by me failing to find the option for the build in “External Tools Configurations”. There you can specify to build the whole workspace, the containing project, or some specific resource.
There is also an Eclipse bug for setting the default to something different than to build the whole workspace. (One could think that “Run as Ant build” would default to not build anything except running the specified Ant target.)
