RE: [cdt-dev] exclude certain files or subdirectories from a projectroot

["Brunauer, Walter" <Walter.Brunauer@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Jun,

this proposal IMO is outdated already, and AFAIK, linked resources are
meanwhile working on any level, but nested project support (i.e.
physically overlapping projects) is not reflected in the Eclipse
platform resource model.

For your problem, using linked resources seems to be a solution.
However, this means not excluding from, but rather explicitely
collecting all files and directories into a project (which itself can be
empty).

I would love to see a real exclusion approach provided by the Eclipse
platform, but AFAIK, nothing like this is planned.

You also may want to look at
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=35973, which due to John
Arthorne's comment seems to be the main bugzilla entry for all kind of
resource model related issues.

HTH,

Walter
