I was stuck on this issue few days back, when I happened to have more than 100 errors in my project and Eclipse “Problems” window was only showing me the top 100. It took me a while to figure out where to change this , so I thought I would blog it.

In your Eclipse IDE Preferences (whether its Eclipse, Flex Builder or Adobe ColdFusion Builder), any Eclipse based IDE, you will find this setting under Java->Compiler->Building. Thats where you can change this setting.

Eclipse Error Setting

I hope this helps someone.

    You could always aim to write less erroneous code :P

    Thats true John. However, Flex sometimes throws hundreds of errors in your css file even if it finds one wrong embedded link . Thats when situation like these arise :)

    Hey, thanks for the info. But did you notice there is a ‘MARKER LIMIT’ in View Menu –> Preferences window? This has nothing to do with the compiler but it showed me all the errors only after I unchecked the ‘Use Marker Limits’ checkbox.

    Cheers

    Open problems view.
    Click corner triangle.
    Select preferences

    Uncross:
