I have noticed that Descent introduces the notion of an 'active project' which is marked as bold on the project list.
This behaviour is unlike other Eclipse-based IDEs which I have seen (CDT, JDT, PDT, Pydev..) and hence is confusing. Why was this introduced? |

That notion comes from Visual Studio. The thing is, you have a project configured somehow (some flags, etc.) and when doing the semantic pass I need to know where to get the flags from. If I always get them from the project the file is included in, it doesn't work... (or it's unexpected for the user). |

So it's basically a workaround, with a non-critical aim to remove it one day and make it work by itself? |
