[news.eclipse.tools] M4 flexible projects compile problem

["Jonathan Gossage" <jonathan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am experimenting with the flexible project structure in M4. I have created
a single project with two source trees, both created by links to existing
file system directories. The first directory contains the classes that form
part of the deliverable product and the second directory contains the test
classes.

The classes in both trees both belong to the same package.

I used this same structure in M3 except that the source directories were
physical sub-directories of the project directory without any problems.

For example if a file in the test tree contains the following statement
      private static CCProgram theProgram;

where CCProgram is a class in the release source tree (but in the same
package).

In M4 when I try to build the project, every class in the test tree that
uses a class from the release tree has compiler errors claiming "CCProgram
cannot be resolved (or is not a valid type) for the field
CCTestCase.theProgram".

Am I doing something wrong or is this a genuine problem. As I said, I had no
problems with M2 and earlier releases.
