Description Robert CLA 2006-10-13 12:25:41 EDT 
I've created an ant build.xml file which runs a grammar file test.g through ANTLR, generating some java files. I have set the build.xml default target.

I've added the build file as an Ant Builder for the project, setting it to run before the Java Builder.

The targets for the builder as set as follows:

After a "Clean": <default target selected>
Manual Build: <default target selected>
Auto Build: <Builder is not set to run for this build kind>
During a "Clean": <default target selected>

The builder runs if I use Project > Clean. However, if I use Project > Build All or Project > Build Project, the builder does not run.

How can I get the builder to run without doing a Project > Clean?

Sorry for the delay on a response on this bug.

I cannot reproduce the problem on I20070417-0800 and we have had no other reports of this problem.

Please reopen if there are further details or issues.

I cannot get an Ant builder to run for manual builds (Build All, or Build Project). I tried 3.3.2, 3.4.2, and 3.5. Auto build works OK, but only when there is an "after clean" target specified (bug 196811).
