 Hi All,
 
 i'm here to ask you the following, since i haven't found any answer in
 the documentation. I'm developing a plugin extension for eclipse 3.2 and
 i have added some new perspectives. No problem with that except for the
 fact that, when enabled, files with filename that start with a dot are
 not hidden by default. Those files are not visible if, for example, i
 activate the Java perspective. Can you tell me how to enable/disable
 this behaviour programmatically?
 Thanks in advance,
 
 Massimiliano Fanciulli

 What View is showing the files? Note that I am not asking about the
 Perspective, but rather the View (for example, Navigator, Project
 Explorer, Package Explorer, etc).
 
 For reference, the only View that shows the . files is the Navigator
 view (I think). Package Explorer and Project Explorer do NOT show those
 files by default.
 
 Hope this helps,
 Eric

 If you want the files hidden, you might want to consider using either
 Project Explorer or Package Explorer views instead. Those views hide .*
 files by default.
 I think the Navigator view
 (org.eclipse.ui.views.navigator.ResourceNavigator) can be configured
 with a pattern filter to hide files, but you'd have to examine its API
 to learn how to set them programatically.
 
 Hope this helps,
 Eric
