Yes.

This isn't a new issue, just the first time it's in the errata.

Acknowledging the problem is the first step. This is progress.

Hello @padawan ,

According to an internal information that seems to be an Eclipse related issue. We need to wait for the Eclipse fix before to integrate it in CubeIDE.

Cannot you solve yourself or try to mitage it somehow?

I suggested in the past to at least make the file temporarily read-only until the run/debug operation has not hit the main so that random file is not changed if some input is issued while the random file is opened. That seems an "easy" solution at least it mitigates some annoying

Not an New issue.

It has been there for quite a long time now.

Hi Andrew,

if i have to work a round a bug, there is still a bug ;)

And: this bug is very old (and still a bug, not a feature).

At the first postes about this bug they say, they solve it "asap"

Now, over 5 years later, i think "asap" is a long time. :)

I will go to tell it my wife, if she wants to make me  clean up the garage.

"asap my dear"

Of course - that's why it's called a workaround - not a fix !
