Description Michael Valenta CLA 2002-09-05 13:00:45 EDT
I've had discussions with a person who would like to use Eclipse but can't 
because of how his company organizes their source directories. Part of his 
problem would be addressed by the current proposal for allowing directory 
mounting inside a project. The other part of the problem is that he would like 
to only include some of the Java files in a source folder in the build for his 
project. He claims that this is possible with javac and with some other IDEs.

One possibility would be to allow the user to mark certain files as being 
hidden (similar to team-private flag). These files would no longer be visible 
to the builder and could be filtered out of views.

To be considered in flexible project structure work.
Comment 2 John Arthorne CLA 2002-12-02 16:38:49 EST
This will be handled by the java builder exclusion filters to be added as part
of the flexible project structure work.  Each source folder will allow you to
add filters that omit certain resources or patterns of resources from the
compilation.  Moving to JDT Core.

UI is being built at the moment, the support is in JDT/Core already.
