Hi All,

the above method evaluates if two clp entries are equal. During =
evaluation
it checks the isExported flag of the clp entry. If it differs it returns =
false. But
for obvious reasons two clp entries that only differ in the export flag =
are not
allowed by the JavaModel (an exception is thrown when the second clp =
entry
is added).

IMO therefore the equals method should not evaluate isExported at all. =
Is this
a bug or am I missing something?

Regards,

Andr=E9

They are not allowed on the same project, but 2 different projects can have
IClasspathEntries that only differ in the export flag.
