Description Chris Aniszczyk CLA 2009-02-07 17:46:07 EST 
99.9% of the users in the world will have a target selected. If a target isn't selected, there should be a warning... similar to what we have for a missing API baseline.
Comment 1 Darin Wright CLA 2009-02-09 09:26:25 EST 
Perhaps the plug-in classpath container should issue a (user-configurable)warning in this case.
Comment 2 Curtis Windatt CLA 2009-03-31 11:29:31 EDT 
Ankur, we could make a simple improvement here which is if you remove your active target, we'll put up a warning on the preference page.

Patch

Added "Information" message that no target is current set active.
Comment 4 Curtis Windatt CLA 2009-04-14 17:52:27 EDT 
Applied the patch to HEAD with two changes

- When the active target is removed, the message will also show up (not just on page opening)
- If an active target is set, the message is now removed.
