Small annoyance with Eclipse on a Mac.

When using Eclipse on a mac, the Java icon keeps popping up in the dock when saving or compiling, taking focus away from Eclipse. Does anyone know of a solution to stop java from showing in the dock?

I don't have this issue in a windows environment.

Version Info:
Eclipse IDE for Java Developers
Version: Luna Service Release 1 (4.4.1)

java version "1.7.0_67"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_67-b01)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.65-b04, mixed mode)

Thanks,
Jason

It is caused by the way the compiler is called from Eclipse.
