Description Ritchie Schacher CLA 2002-05-13 11:26:46 EDT 
I'd like to be able to do the following with an IClasspathEntry:
if (!entry.isExported())
 entry.setExported(true);

but there is no such api.  Looks like the current workaround is to
create a new entry and copy the other info.

Yes, this is intentional. Classpath entries are read-only, if you want to 
change some, then you need to create another one and reset the classpath (think 
of the side-effects in term of Java model updating).
