Build Identifier: 20100917-0705 Under Window->Preferences->C/C++->General Settings for C/C++ Development, the options for "Build Scope" (Build active configuration versus build all configurations) and "Build configurations only when there are Eclipse resource changes within the project and its references" do not persist across restarts of Eclipse. the options do apply during the current instance of Eclipse, but once Eclipse is restarted, the options revert to default. This bug occurs in both Ubuntu 10.04 and Windows 7; in previous versions it occurs on Mac OS X, but I haven't had access to a mac to test more recently. I haven't tested other operating systems. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Go to Window->Preferences->C/C++->General Settings for C/C++ Development and select "Build all configurations in each project" and check mark "Build configurations only when there are Eclipse resource changes within the project and its references". 2. Restart Eclipse. 3. Go to Window->Preferences->C/C++->General Settings for C/C++ Development. The options have reverted to default (Build active configuration and unchecked).
I can reproduce with 7.0.0 but not 8.0. Looks like this has been fixed with bug 334118.
