Eclipse resources have to live inside projects, and generated classfiles are
just another kind of resources produced by the Java builder.
In order projects to see changed in generated classfiles (incremental
recompilation), it is necessary that these be true resources.

If Eclipse was supporting folders outside a project to be true managed
resources (like projects living outside the workspace location) then the
Java limitation could disappear. So please enter a motivated bug report
against Platform/Core if you need this behavior to change.
