Hi,
I'm using Eclipse 3.4 Ganymede on Windows XP. Within a project, I created
a folder and then cut and pasted a .java JUnit file into that folder.
However, as I edit, when various syntax errors come up, there is no red
underline or anything indicating something is wrong. Notice the "bbb" I
typed at the top of here:
http://screencast.com/t/F4w68Fgo
I am not alerted to potential compilation errors of any kind. How do I
enable this setting?
Thanks, - Dave

Check the following:
* are you running JDK 5 or later?
* do you have JDT installed (eg., Eclipse "Classic" SDK or Ganymede JEE
bundle, among others)?
* is the folder in which you pasted the .java file a source folder, or
just some other type of folder? Right-click the project's root folder
and select properties to add more source folders.
* is the project a Java project? Open the Navigator view then check the
..project file. If it doesn't have the JDT builder & nature, you'll have
to add it.

You probably need to add the new folder as a source folder. Open the
project's Properties, select Java Build Path, and then the Source tab.
There you can add it as a Source Location.
Hope this helps,
Eric
