minor xtext problems

[Curt Siffert]

Hi, I am having a minor recurring problem that goes like this:

1) When I got the 2.16 upgrade for Elysium, I was able to open each of my *.ly files in turn, recompile them (command-R), and see all the errors go away. No more red squiggly lines.

2) A short time later, red squiggly lines appear under certain parts in my scores (commonly unrecognized \break variables), but without any errors showing up in my problems tab.

3) A few sessions later, when I start up Eclipse, my problems tab is full of errors again, from many of my files. I go through each of the files and command-R them, and the errors disappear again.

It's not a big deal but it does take a bit of time to recompile my files every so often - any idea on if this can be fixed?

Thanks!
Curt

You don't need to recompile the files, just select the projects and perform Project > Clean... > Clean projects selected below. This shouldn't recompile them with LilyPond, only reparse them internally, so the error markers will go away after a while. Alternatively, you can manually delete the error markers in the Problems view.

Hi, the problems reappeared for me and the "Clean projects" approach didn't have any effect.

Deleting the markers will work but it does seem like it could be a minor bug with elysium's xtext handling.  Why would "Unknown variable: break" (for instance) keep reappearing (eventually) after a recompile makes it disappear?

Thanks,

Curt

Please collect commands that Elysium doesn't recognize in issue 54, and I'll look into them.
