When your create your project, you can point the location
of the project to where your 
view resides, rather than creating a new folder in
the workspace. (uncheck the "use default"
checkbox)

It may be a configuration issue.  (Are your intrinsic
include paths discovered?)
There are also quite a few outstanding defects regarding
the selection feature.  
I would suggest that you turn on the Indexer Problem
Markers via the project properties.
This will give you an indication as to how well the
parsing framework is understanding
your source code.

I am not sure why this is happening, I'd suggest that
you raise a bug @ bugs.eclipse.org
to allow our team to find a scenario to reproduce
this.
