Description Bin Ni CLA 2002-01-04 21:15:46 EST 
My project works well in 20011107. I tried to upgrade to 20011219/18, after
the eclipse startup. It showes "The project was not built since it is
inconsistent, refresh this project and rebuild it". And I tried to refresh
from local. After a while, it started to invoke build and then failed. The
reason is the same. 

I removed some src directories and it works. It seems there is limitation for 
size of the project.

There are no size limitations for projects, but it is possible that the first 
refresh did not do the job.

This error occurs usually because a subdirectory of the output directory could 
not be deleted since its the current directory of a dos box/explorer.

Was there an open explorer on the output directory?

I guess I found the reason: If there exists resource files (e.g. a.xml) with 
same name in different source folder (in the same package/folder), it complains.

Attached is the simplified project for you ref.
