Do not build all projects when start simulation

Posted Thu, 2011-06-09 12:28 by Fabian May

Hey,

In my eclipse-workspace there is a mix of C++, vhdl and java projects. Every time I run the vhdl simulator (Xilinx isim) all my workspace projects are built. This could take a very long time because of the cdt projects. I haven't found a place where I can configure the build dependencies for my vhdl compile configurations.
Is this feature hidden somewhere or do you plan to add it to HDT 1.0?

Best regards
Fabian

Hi Fabian,

This is definitely a bug. I've filed it as ticket:1514. To work around this issue you could close the c++ projects while you are working on your VHDL project.

No bug after all

Hi Fabian,

I investigated your issue and found out this is not a bug, but a feature ;-).
Eclipse has a default preference setting that makes sure all projects in the workspace are fully build, before an external program can be launched.
You can disable this setting via: Preferences > Run/Debug > Launching.

Kind regards,
Hendrik.
