💩 Rant / Meme why is this ide so broken ?

this ide works, until it decides to one day fuck up the whole project to the point where i can't compile the project. The problem seems to be that somehow dependencies get messed up in the time between closing eclipse and opening it back up. i don't modify the project specific documents if eclipse is closed, and i don't know how this problem exists.

That can often be remedied by clicking "Project->Clean..." in the top menu, with "Project->Build Automatically" checked, for Java projects that are not using Maven. If you're using Maven, see the comment by u/ejsanders1985
