Eclipse: How to prevent an entire rebuild of a project after changing classpath

Is there away to prevent eclipse from rebuilding the entire project every time I change an entry in the class path. Unfortunately, I have to play around with the build path often and rebuilding the projects takes a long time (easily 20-30 mins). Is there away to avoid this?

It should do the same thing it does when you change your source code: analyze what are the actual changes and perform an incremental build based on those.

A simpler way is turn off "Build Automatically" in Main Menu: Project/Build Automatically. This turns off auto-build mode, so you can trigger it manually (from same Project menu)
