With the introduction of the new bnd build system the Eclipse IDE loops endlessly between “Building Workspace(1%) - Invoking Maven Builder (/org.openhab,core) — Executing org.openhab.core.jar:jar goal” . when automatic builds are enabled (as it is by default). I always have to switch them off which is bad when working with Eclipse. An ideas?
Yes I had this also. In my case the fix was to use the Oracle JDK (8 201). For some reason this seems a problem with openJDK (I’ve tried different versions, because I prefer to use the openJDK. But switched to Oracle JDK because I have no idea how to figure out what the problem is and didn’t want to spend anymore time on it)
Hmm, I am using Oracle JDK 8 202. Here the problem shows up. WIll now switch from Windows to Mac to see, if the issue there happens as well.
I am using Java build 1.8.0_162-b12 on Windows and I have this same issue.
It doesn’t seem to be related to openJDK as I’m on Oracle’s. Maybe it is a Windows problem then?
Looks like it’s a windows issue. It does not happen on my Mac. But it is probably an issue of the combination Windows+BND+Maven… How can we find it? I am unfortunately not very fluent in bnd setups.
INot specific Windows. have it on one Linux machine also with both openjdk and Oracle jdk. On another Linux machine I don’t have it with the Oracle jdk. I have to research what the difference is.
I build a fresh copy today with openjdk in fedora Linux. That worked without a build loop. But I remember that I had that once as well a few weeks ago.
Edit: Now that I have re-opended the workspace, I do have the re-build phenomenon again. The only solution as mentioned above is to disable auto-builds for me.
