Hi,
I've used Eclipse before on Windows, but never on Mac. I installed the application without making any changes to the default settings, yet whenever I make a new Java Project a message reading "no source folder exists in the project". Is there any workaround to this? Will it affect any of the programs I make? Or is it just something I have to deal with that doesn't really mean anything.
Thanks!

I'm not sure if it's a bug, but try selecting the other option in the Project Layout part of the page.
