Where is it stored whether a directory is 'derived'? [message #250428] Thu, 03 January 2008 12:47 Go to next message

Hi!

If I mark a directory 'derived', where will Eclipse store this information?

I've been experimenting around by checking for changes in either the
project directory or in the .metadata folder, but neither changed when I
changed the 'derived' attribute for a directory inside the project. (Also,
after closing Eclipse only apparently irrelevant settings have been
changed.)

I'm using Eclipse 3.2.2 on SuSE Linux.


Thanks,
Agoston

Agoston,

I think it's stored under .metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources
somewhere; note there is a whole tree of structure under there too.
This is more a platform question than a JDT question...

OK. I've moved the discussion to the group 'eclipse.platform' .
(See my answer there about why IMO it is not stored under
metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources...)

Thanks,
Agoston
