Build ID: I20070621-1340 Steps To Reproduce: 1. Create cyclically linked directories, e.g.: > ll /usr/local/boost_1_33_1 lrwxrwxrwx 1 boost_1_33_1 -> /usr/local/boost_1_33_1 drwxrwxr-x 48 include drwxrwxr-x 2 lib 2. Add this directory to a CDT project 3. Try "Refresh workspace" or "Index->Rebuild" More information: I work within a workspace, which is located on my WinXP PC. The workspace contains projects, which are located on a Unix ClearCase server, and (like the boost part) on a Unix server connected via Samba. The main project consists of more than 55,000 files. The cyclic softlinks were a mistake, but Eclipse must handle this.
