refreshLocal of Folder doesn't work as expected [message #61630]

Hi..
I've written an action working on a compilationUnit which generates a
derive java file, in the same directory as the selection CU.
e.g If I select 'myClass.java' (in package org.soft.module) and perform my
'FancyAction' on it, the result is that a new file 'myClassFancy.java' is
created in the same directory where myClass.java resides.
Since Eclipse is not synchronized with the local filesystem, i need to
refresh the parent folder of the selected resource.
I used parentFolder.refreshLocal(...) but i still have to call the core
"RefreshAction" manually to see the new file. But.. if I put a breakpoint
in the run-method of my FancyAction. The folder is actually refresh and i
see the new file. Why is that??

below a snippet of my code,the actual code is much larger but i only show
relevant source

****
public void run(IAction action) {
ICompilationUnit cu = (ICompilationUnit) sel.iterator().first();
String FancyArg = cu.getTypes()[0].getFullyQualifiedName();
FancyPlugin.getDefault().doit(fancyArg);

try {
IResource parentResource = cu.getParent().getResource();
parentResource.refreshLocal(IResource.DEPTH_ONE, null);
} catch (CoreException e1) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e1.printStackTrace();
}
}

The refreshLocal does work, but the problem is that the files that i
create in that directory are created after i do the refresh.
