Just guess, Ivanov Dmitry may be confused by the message displayed at
bottom (in minibuffer area) saying "Command: (default LaTeX)". In both
cases AUCTeX on C-c C-c will use the same message but will use different
engines. If Ivanov Dmitry continue and run C-C C-c again, after
processing file by "latex" AUCTeX will show "Command: (default View)" in
minibuffer.
