Preconditions: i. A "Java" project must exist with the following folder structure. myProject ->src -->web --->public ---->myCompany Reproduction i. Launch the Eclipse platform ii. Open Perspective "Java" iii. In the Menu select Window->Show View->Package Explorer iv. Right-Click "myProject" -> Open Project v. Click the tree node to expand "myProject" vi. Click the tree node to expand "src" vii. Click the tree node to expand "web" viii.Click the tree node to expand "public" The "myCompany" folder does not appear. Only files withing the public folder appear and any content beneath it is unavailable. I have confirmed this in both Windows2000 Professional and Red-Hat Linux 7.2
Created attachment 4795 [details] Screen Shot This Shows the creation of the project.
Created attachment 4796 [details] Screen Shot: Pakcage Explorer Shows the lack of the "myCompany" folder in the Package Explorer
Created attachment 4797 [details] Project Directory Used Is a jar of the project directory used to reproduce this bug.
When the folder in the file system is renamed from "public" to "myPublic" and the "web" folder in the Package Explorer is Refreshed, all subsequent sub folders will show up.
Created attachment 4988 [details] Screen shot with public folder and its contents displayed I created a project (Java) called 'myProject' and then used your zip file to populate it. I then did a 'refresh', changed the project properties so that myProject/src was the source directory and took a look at what was contained in this project. I could see the 'myCompany' directory under 'public'. Could you verify that this is not a problem with the environment. Perhaps try creating another Java project with the same directory structure somewhere else. I was using build I20030527 on WinXP with vm jdk1.4.1_02 to try to reproduce this problem.
I am using Version: 2.1.0, Build id: 200303272130 with vm jdk 1.3.1_06-b01 on winXP Pro SP1. I have re-produced it on multiple environments. Could it be that it has been fixed as a result of another fix, or some ambitious developer fixed it without a bug report? The reason I ask is i notice the difference in the eclipse versions we are using. I doubt the environment is the culprit due to the fact that i can readily reproduce the problem in both win32 and linux platforms by simply renaming a folder. If you have any further thoughts/questions, just e-mail me directly.
Am now able to reproduce this problem. The problem appears to be in the released version of 2.1 (which I believe is the same as M200303272130) but does not appear in the 2.1 maintenance stream build M20030528. Am reassigning this to JDT. Please mark as a duplicate if another PR already exists for this problem. The exact steps I used to reproduce this in Release Build 2.1 are: - create a new environment on WinXP with release 2.1, using vm 1.3.1_06 - File->New->Project->Java->Java Project - when prompted, I gave the project the name 'myProject' - was asked if I wished to convert to the Java perspective and I said yes - at this point the Package Explorer view is present. - I had unziped the data from attachment 3 [details] on this PR. Went to the place where I had this data and copied the directories bin and src. Went to <workspace>/plugins/myProject and pasted these 2 directories there. - in Package Explorer, left click myProject to select it, then right click and Refresh so these new directories are recognized by Eclipse - in Package Explorer, left click myProject to select it (not really necessary as it is already selected), right click, Properties. Under Java Build Path, select the Source tab and Add Folder. Expand myProject, and select src. Click Ok, then yes to the query and finally ok so that 'src' is the source directory for this project. - now expand myProject in Package Explorer to find that the 'myCompany' directory is not present under 'public' - open view Navigator and find that 'myCompany' is under 'public'
This got addressed by fixing bug 35851
