Why modify the xml file in a project Eclipse will initiate a project build

Question

If there is an xml file in the java Eclipse project and the "build Automatically" mode is enabled, every time I change the xml file and save it, it starts Eclipse to create the project, and sometimes it takes a lot of time to finish.

I just thought that xml files are just resource files, or at least this is not a code change and should not start building a project. What is the reason for this, and is there anyway to turn it off?
