Re: Is there any way to stop the scanning projects?

If you want no scanning then you don't want an IDE and projects, you just
want a text editor. You might accomplish this by not using projects and
just opening files via the Files tree (Window | Files).

It's not like scanning is there for sadistic reasons. Scanning is the only
answer (so far) to any IDEs lack of control over the files. There is the
possibility that files get changed by your build system (think Maven code
gen) or by you manually using another editor. And since a project needs a
good world-view of your files, it needs to update this view. And nowadays
is actually quite efficient -- it uses the OSes native filesystem
notifications (eg, native OSX fsevents, etc).

What we need is a Smalltalk image-like system where the IDE has full
control over the project. Then no scanning would be needed.
