Bascially I have a eclipse 1.x project that I imported.  Inside that .classpath
file are these lines:

    <classpathentry kind="lib" path="classes"/>
    <classpathentry kind="src" path="source"/>
    <classpathentry kind="output" path="classes"/>

when I try to compile I get:

Invalid classpath in 'uportal16-vista/.classpath' file: Source folder
'uportal16-vista/source' cannot output to library 'uportal16-vista/classes'.

The project was not built due to classpath errors (incomplete or involved in cycle).

Now when I try and remove the erroronous
<classpathentry kind="lib" path="classes"/> manually from the .classpath file in
eclipse when I try to save I get:

"Save could not be completed.  Reason: Could not write file:
e:\project-name\.classpath.

Now if I go outside of eclipse use a text editor and remove the line all the
while eclipse is still open I can save the file fine.  I then refresh in eclipse
and the project compiles.
