hi,
when I am closing a project Eclipse tries to close all files which are
open in the edit window. But generally there is at least one file which
cannot be closed.
The error message then is like
File /simu/include/utility.h does not exist
The file really is existing, but not within /simu/include/ but within
~/workspace/simu/include/
Why does Eclipse search in the wrong directory?
(Eclipse 3.1.1, CDT 3.0.2, on Suse Linux10.1)

That's a very old and annoying bug of the Eclipse platform. There are
several bugzilla instances of it:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=40795
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=41431
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=52279
Note that the path reported in the error message is a workspace-relative
path (although it looks like an absolute path), not a file system location.
The problem occurs whhen an editor has never been realized
(instantiated) in a session, i.e. the editor exists only as a tab.
In this case the editor is not seen as being associated with the project
and therefore it is not closed. If it is activated later (or becomes
visible because all editors on top are closed), restoring the editor fails.
