IResource.exists() problem [message #242692]

I am having problems with the method IResource.exists(). I create a file
inside a project using IFile.create() and after doing that the method
exists() returns true and the file is created. But after I restart the
plugin and reopen the project, the method exists() on the same file returns
false, though the file still exists in the file system.
The question is: why does the exists() method return false when the file
exists?

Andrei,

You asked this same question in the platform newsgroup. Please don't
post the same question separate to multiple newsgroups. If you must
post to multiple newsgroups (which wasn't necessary in this case) do so
with a single posting addressed to all the groups so an answer on one
will appear on all.
