Handling selections on source folders [message #1014388]

I've been working on a plug-in that walks the AST Tree but I'm having an issue getting the correct compilation units for a project that has more than one source folder. When the user selects the source folder, the menu selection returns the IPackageFragmentRoot and it's children show ALL source folders.

How do I filter the tree to only see the children on the selection?

Thanks.

this sounds wrong, an IPackageFragmentRoot already represents a source folder (or a library, or...), its children are package fragments, never other source folders. Do you really see other IPackageFragmentRoot instances in the result of IPackageFragmentRoot.getChildren()?

Thanks for the response, it's working now. I'm not sure what the issue was. I was fighting it for two days but now it's magically working and I didn't change any code. I hate issues like this Sad
