Description Jonathan Edwards

There is some bogus Java code sitting in a certain directory in my project. I
added the directory to the Java source build path exclusion filter to ignore it.
That worked in M5, but the first time I did a complete rebuild in RC1 it stopped
working. The excluded package is now being compiled and errors are reported.

Can you please paste your .classpath file into this PR.

My .classpath:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<classpath>
    <classpathentry excluding="alloy/gui/mac|doc|gmp|SatLab|bin"
        kind="src" path=""/>
    <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.JRE_CONTAINER"/>
    <classpathentry kind="output" path="bin"/>
</classpath>

If the exclusion filters are denoting folders, they should be suffixed with '/'.
Opening your buildpath wizard should diagnose this.

It should look something like:

<classpathentry excluding="alloy/gui/mac/|doc/|gmp/|SatLab/|bin/"
        kind="src" path=""/>

Before M5, the Java builder was tolerating not '/' suffixed exclusion filters, 
and as per Ant fileset rules it should not have done so.
