Comment 2 Srimanth CLA 2005-02-03 18:31:35 EST 
This is actually a defect with JDT IScanner(84398) implementation where reusing
a IScanner causes a problem. The IScanner implementation doesnt clean up once it
is told to scan a new string. Having the old values causes the problem for the
new source.
Putting in a temporary fix for cleaning up the internal values. This needs to be
removed once 84398 gets resolved. Releasing class DefaultScannerFactory.
Comment 3 Srimanth CLA 2005-02-09 12:48:32 EST 
JDT bug 84398 has been fixed in Eclipse 3.1M4. This problem should go away once
VE steps up to Eclipse 3.1. Need to verify and close this defect after the move
to 3.1.
Comment 4 Jonathan Stinton CLA 2005-03-14 15:18:47 EST
