This is somewhat misleading.
JDT is a compiler in the same sense of the term as javac is a compiler.

- InclinedPlane 17y agoI think you're just misparsing the parent post re: in most cases Eclipse never "invokes" a Java compiler. The meaning seems to be that a Java compiler is never invoked (because it's built into the IDE), not that a Java compiler is never used.
