Eclipse build time??

Hi,
If you cancel building a project in the middle then next time Eclipse builds the whole project, which takes long long time. Is this a bug or there is a setting that we can use to turn it off?
Also, I have observed that if you shut down Eclipse ungracefully then next time it again builds the whole project. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Deep

My guess is that the state of the project gets corrupted when you terminate a build in progress or kill Eclipse, so it gets confused as to what was built and what was not forcing a full rebuild next time.

As soon as you create a project, WSAD starts creating (project) folders in workspace. So removing the project from workspace will solve the problem. It's also not a bad idea to clear up the workspace by changing the workspace directory, and then removing the entire older workspace folder.
