Description Mike Irvine CLA 2005-04-07 15:26:08 EDT 
Adding folders throught the properties/Java build path/libaries/Add Class folder
mechanism allows the contents of the folder to be updated by eclipse.

(Yes I know the folders should be write protected) but never did I expect that
different operations in Eclipse would either rebuild or remove the files.

If you can't fix it a big warning would be nice.

Mike, can you please provide a concrete scenario. We are not updating class
folders, but we do update output folders. Is the same class folder and output
folder of another project.

Waiting for response from reporter

As of now 'LATER' and 'REMIND' resolutions are no longer supported.
Please reopen this bug if it is still valid for you.
