Description Hendrik Eeckhaut CLA 2011-09-27 10:10:11 EDT
Build Identifier: 

JDT offers a preference to limit the number of problems reported per compilation unit (100 per default): Preferences > Java > Compiler > Building > General. This would be a good usability (and performance?) improvement for Xtext too.

The parser recovery of Antlr is great, but showing more than 100 problem markers per resource adds no value in my opinion.

Reproducible: Always
