Everytime I click on the save button after modifying a *single* file, eclipse saves the file *and* compiles the 2000+ java files remaining 
I do not want that, I only want to save it and compile my code using one of my targets in build.xml later on.
One of my targets in build.xml creates an output directory, and all the class files are sent there when compiling. Therefore I do not need any output folder. But if I click on the Properties for my project, I have to have a "Default output folder" .
So, my questions are:
1o) how to let eclipse know that I only want to save my file, without compiling everything?
2o) how to let eclipse know that my ant tasks delete (when cleaning) and create (when compiling) an output folder where all the classes are placed? I do *not* need a "default output folder" !
hope I was clear..

That's strange - typically the Eclipse compiler is quite good at finding out which files need to be recompiled. For me, I most often don't even notice the time used for compiling. You must have some nasty dependencies between your classes if saving results in a full build... 
2o) how to let eclipse know that my ant tasks delete (when cleaning) and create (when compiling) an output folder where all the classes are placed? I do *not* need a "default output folder" !
I don't understand the purpose of this. If you don't use Eclipse for compilation, just ignore the output folder setting.

that's the problem. I can't "ignore it". The "default output folder" is mandatory, otherwise you cannot close the window.
My build scripts have the tasks of creating this output folder, placing all the class files there. I do not want eclipse to do it for me.
As far as question 1, the problem is solved. It saves the file without compiling the rest. Compilation is another story coming soon  .

Just put anything in there. If you don't compile, it won't get used.
