Sometimes the needs compilation icon is displayed on the source editor window or the filesystems window even after the class has been compiled. To make it go away, you have to either to rebuild the class, or browse to it in the filesystem, or perhaps something else. I can't reproduce this consistently, but I see it on a regular basis. I saw it in previous IDE versions as well.
Passing to java module. I don't know to which component this error should go, so please reassign further if needed.
I have this consistently when I compile to a specific target (right-click a file, properties->compiler->external compillation:Target set to a value other than <not set>). When performing a build when the target is set, the "needs compilation" icon remains, even though the files have been correctly built. When performing a compilation on a single file, the "needs compilation" icon is removed, even though the file is not compiled.
I cannot reproduce this in 200508091800. Usecase from pootle is not aviable in promo F. Since this is a very old issue, I'm closing it as WORKSFORME. Feel free to reopen.
