| JAR prefix path for Java source attachments in Eclipse 3 ? [message #95715] |

With Eclipse 2.1 and before, I could attach Java source code that was inside a
JAR file, underneath a prefix path like "src".
This behavior is described in
http://www.eclipse.org/documentation/html/plugins/org.eclips e.jdt.doc.user/doc/tasks/tasks-115.htm
"In the Root Path field, type or browse to select the prefix path to the source
code stored inside the archive. If you click Browse, you can browse the contents
of the JAR and select its root."
This does not seem to be possible any more in Eclipse3 M2. Has that feature been
moved somehow, or was it abandoned purposefully?
I'm not sure if this has anything to do with the changes in
JavaCore.newLibraryEntry that I've googled up (I just use Eclipse as an IDE, not
on the API level).
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=38371
http://dev.eclipse.org/viewcvs/index.cgi/~checkout~/org.ecli pse.jdt.core/buildnotes_jdt-core.html:
"Removed tolerance for relative source attachments in
JavaCore.newLibraryEntry(...). Only allowing relative empty pathes so as to
permit using classpath variables to denote the absence of a source attachment."
The reason why we used the "src" subdirectory inside the JAR files was that Java
code which we generated and immediately compiled, and then packed both .java and
..class files in the same jar file, confused the java runtime. The classloader
tried to get out the .java instead of the .class file, as it had the same
timestamp... of course then complained about it being invalid.
Any easy solutions to that?
Thanks for any insights!

The prefix path should be automatically detected now. If it is not in your
case, please enter a bug against JDT/Core with steps to reproduce the
problem.
