How to ignore a folder from the checks during eclipse renaming refactoring? [message #1691748]

When I rename a Java class in eclipse using the automated refactoring function (Alt+Shift+R), the checks take a very long time to complete. The reason is a subfolder which contains a large number of (non source) text files.

Is there a way to tell eclipse to exclude that folder from the checks during the renaming factoring without moving the folder?

Please note that I posted the question over a week ago at https:// stackoverflow.com/questions/29353183/how-to-ignore-a-folder-from-the-checks-during-eclipse-renaming-refactoring without receiving an answer. I hope, it is ok to repost here.

Setting the "derived" flag solved the problem (rightclick on folder --> properties).
