I'm guessing this is Java, it looks like Java. Moving to JDT/Core, where Java compiler bugs belong. You must have project specific settings to report unused locals as errors. Looks like a setting problem. Could you please provide your compiler settings for this project? Please reopen with settings if you disagree. Verified for 4.3 M3 |
Build Identifier: 20110218-0911 When Eclipse does a build, it is displaying about 170 errors in the "Problems view" as such.. "The local variable cid is never read" In all of these cases, they are not actual compiler errors at all. See below for eg. public void init ( ) { String cid = "testThis"; // this shows up as an error (underlined) in the editor } And this leads into the bigger problem - Eclipse is not underlining the legitimate errors in the editor. Str cid = "testThat"; // this is not being underlined as an error in Eclipse I have tried everything, from ensuring that "restore to defaults" is set everywhere to uninstalling and reinstalling Eclipse. But the problem persists. Reproducible: Always
