Description Craig CLA 2008-11-25 02:21:50 EST 
I'm working with a team of developers and would like to version control the .classpath files.

The only problem is when each a developer attachs source to each library that the project depends upon this file changes for the other developers.

If the team decides on a naming convention for workspace variables then can't these variables be used in the .classpath and an option. This will allow use to reduce the changes that these files will have.

It will also be nice because now only one person needs to attach the source and the rest can benefit from it and not have to attach it themselves.
