Hello,
it seems that webclipse has troubles with hierarchical project structure. In my case I have a Maven (Java) project where only one sub-module is the UI using typescript, i.e.
-root (Maven pom)
–system (Maven pom)
—backend (Java)
—gui (TypeScript/Angular2)
–tools, etc…
I in the Eclipse progress there appears a message ‘Touching resource …/tsconfig.json. rebuilding project’ again and again, forever. I noticed that the tsconfig.json is being touched from both ‘gui’ project root and from ‘system’ project root. 3 projects have the TypeScript facet on – root, system and gui – while only the gui is a TS project. All 3 refer to the same tsconfig.json file from within gui folder (see project Properties, TypeScript section). I am not able to disable TypeScript facet on system and root, in this case also gui looses the TypeScript facet and tsconfig.json gets deleted.
Do you have any suggestion how to avoid constant rebuilding – it makes my Eclipse Neon.2 unbelievably slow.
Thanks,
Jiri
