Description Sam Davis

When I have task A active, and I activate task B, I get prompted to exit Eclipse. If I didn't have the prompt enabled I assume it would just exit. This happens only for a particular task A and another particular task B, and only when switching directly from A to B. It does not happen when switching from A to another task or from another task to B, nor when deactivating A and then activating B. It happens every single time I switch from A to B though.

To test this further, I created tasks A' and B' and copied the contexts of A and B respectively to them. I see the prompt to exit when switching from A' to B but not when switching from A' to B' or from A to B'. So it appears to be related to the context of A and to something about task B which is not part of its context (since B' did not inherit it).

Nevermind, it turns out this is caused by another plugin.
