It is possible to add a variable to the build path for a project using add variable but this will not pick up the classes in that directory. The user although warned can still select it. STEPS 1) Define a classpath variable PATH_TEST that is a directory with classes in it 2) Open the properties dialog on a JavaProject 3) Select the Libraries Tag 4) Select Add Variable 5) Select PATH_TEST 6) You will get a message that Resolved path does not exist. However OK is enabled so you can select this and believe it is valid.The UI correctly shows the empty circle to indicate it is not found but it is easy to miss the cause of this.
as designed. We want to be tolerant when setting variable classpath entries. there is only a warning, but no error.
The warning should be more eye catching then - perhaps use a different colour for the background like the wizards do.
Improved the error status. Warnings now are rendered with a warning image. > 20109
Verified: Exclamation mark on yellow triangle appears to the left of error message.
