With a plugin project the bin.excludes does not update when a jar file is deleted from the project. With bin.includes, the manifest gets updated with a yellow warning triangle. But this does not happen with bin.excludes.
Why would you want a warning if you are trying to exclude something which isn't there? If you are trying to exclude a file/folder and it isn't there to be included, aren't you achieving your desired result?
Brian, it makes sense to have this kind of check if, say, there is a typo in the folder name that you are trying to exclude.
Should be easy to add this to our builder.
Created attachment 75394 [details] patch to org.eclipse.pde.ui Adds resource checking to the bin and src excludes. It re-uses the existing validateIncludes method, which may be wrong.
adding contributed keyword, assigning to Brock.
looks clean Brock, thanks for the patch. It's as simple as that :) Applied to HEAD.
