Missing Build Path menu item in context menu [message #892538]

Usually there is a Build Path menu item near the Source and the Refactor menu items in the context menu if I right-click on a project in the package explorer.

It happened that this menu item has gone and appears only when right-clicking on the src folder under the project node.

Where has that menu item (of the project node) gone?

It's weird because I have several workspace and this phenomenon occurs only in one workspace but not in the others.

How can I get that menu item back?

Thank you.

The context menu depends on, well, context. Context is affected by
perspective, project type, file type, so many things. Also, I note that
Indigo still has a bug in the population of the Run As item on Linux
that can be worked around (i.e.: tricked into working).

Just saying...not sure it helps.

Well, it worked well until yet with my Indigo (and it's still working in another workspace). I must accidentially do something that does not appear anymore.
Maybe this happened as a side effect when uninstalling plugins (TOAD, ...)!?! It's weird anyway.
