Build config view error

[Symbian_Neil]

Build Configuration view shows error. This happens randomly as sometimes its there working perfectly fine. Any clue anyone what could be the issue related to this??

Thanks in advance

Is anybody else facing the same problem too or is my installation having some problem??

Would appreciate to compare notes with other developers and would love if somebody from Carbide/Eclipse/Nokia also point out for the benefit of other users of Carbide.c++.

cheers

It would be good to give us a bit more information than there is "an error". For example the error message would help in someone trying to give you some advice. Also in which situations it has appeared might be helpful.

Thanks Terasvirta for the attention.

The error: "Unable to create view: An unexpected exception was thrown"

Frequency of Appearance: Used to be pretty random..lately I have taken it off the screen(disabled the build configuration view) coz its very de-motivating to see some error stuff on screen, so am not sure if its there always now..but seems pretty much like its there all the time now(its been there everytime I enable the view).

When I click on details of error..here is what it shows :
