             Summary: Unexpected compiler errors in Eclipse during development
                 Key: SLING-8700
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-8700
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Task
          Components: IDE
            Reporter: Robert Munteanu
            Assignee: Robert Munteanu
             Fix For: Sling Eclipse IDE 1.2.4


1. Change any code in eclipse-ui module in Eclipse
2. Run the plug-ins as an Eclipse Application (Sling IDE Tooling shared launch config)

Result: eclipse-ui fails to start, logged event _An error occurred while automatically activating bundle org.apache.sling.ide.eclipse-ui (536)._ Error is attached, but root cause are compilation errors in org.apache.sling.ide.eclipse.ui.internal.Activator.<init>, e.g.

	AbstractUIPlugin cannot be resolved to a type
	ServiceTracker cannot be resolved to a type
	SerializationManager cannot be resolved to a type
	SerializationManager cannot be resolved to a type
	ServiceTracker cannot be resolved to a type
	FilterLocator cannot be resolved to a type
	FilterLocator cannot be resolved to a type

Note that these errors are not reflected in the editor.

Solution is usually to clean the affected project.

The same applies to the eclipse-core plug-in, so I assume this is not isolated to a single Eclipse project. Iit does not apply to org.apache.sling.ide.api or org.apache.sling.ide.artifacts, so I assume this is related to the projects under '/eclipse' only, not to those under '/shared'.

It also happens that when editing a class ( e.g. JcrNode ), random compiler errors pop up in the same project.
