Re: [wtp-dev] Pointing the web content or wen-inf to a different folder

[Saminda Wijeratne <samindaw@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
Thanx Eric, this is exactly the kind of thing I was looking for. It 
worked the way I wanted even though eclipse showed linked resources with 
an arrow at the side (which would have been better if it is not there). 
It was even better. I managed to link the individual services in the 
repo to the services that needs to be shown web content folder rather 
than the whole web content folder since the repo does not neccessarily 
have everything needed in the web content folder.

Thanx again,
Saminda
