My filter is set to show everything and it lists 5169 items but the description for each item is blank. Nothing in the log file.
Not sure what the problem is but I did a clean build and now out of the 10,000 warnings listen 9121 of them show descriptions while the remaining do not. this is e3.1m5a
I have duplicated this issue running on OS X with the 3.1M6 build. Seems to sometimes show the descriptions and sometimes not. I ran a "clean" and it did not correct the problem.
I've seen the same problem on Eclipse 3.1RC1. Specifically, if I restart Eclipse with a project open that has instances of the following warning: The static field XXX should be accessed in a static way. then the description is blank after Eclipse has restarted (although it wasn't blank when I shut Eclipse down).
I have also seen this happen many, many times. It seems that doing a clean and then a full rebuild usually fixes the problem temporarily; subsequent builds (without a manual clean) sometimes cause all my problems to go blank. I am using 3.1 RC2, on Windows XP. I have been seeing this issue since the milestone releases, but hadn't thought to enter a bug report. For what its worth, this is a pretty serious problem for large projects. *Note: this problem is also affecting the 'Tasks' view. When the 'Problems' view decides to exhibit this behavior, so does the 'Tasks' view. Hopefully that will help locate this bug...
Please raise the severity of this problem to "major"; It's definitely a major hinderance for us. The workaround mentioned about cleaning then doing a full build is not working for us. I can't believe 3.1 went GA with this bug. Anyone else found a consistent way around this?
