Description Darin Swanson CLA 2004-11-03 17:05:03 EST 
Using the advanced classpath features, adding a variable string is always 
resolved as a archive entry.

If this is the limitation it should be indicated in the dialog. 
Otherwise we should be less restrictive.
Comment 1 Darin Wright CLA 2005-02-23 15:41:41 EST 
This is a restriction - a variable resolves to a path that is interpretted as 
a folder or jar (both of which are considered archives).
Comment 2 Darin Wright CLA 2005-04-04 11:22:39 EDT 
Deferred
Comment 3 Darin Wright CLA 2005-04-04 16:47:58 EDT 
(again)
Comment 4 Darin Wright CLA 2006-06-14 15:39:24 EDT 
No action planned. Would be taken care of with re-write of classpath editing support.
Comment 5 Eclipse Webmaster CLA 2009-08-30 02:40:07 EDT 
As of now 'LATER' and 'REMIND' resolutions are no longer supported.
Please reopen this bug if it is still valid for you.
