Weird problem with Eclipse file system [message #155466]

Hi all,

This has started happening lately that the filesystem or sequence of files
in a project totally changes.It is driving me crazy as I have to create
another project to rectify or I don't know how to correct the problem.

This is what happens
when we open up a project we get the project name beneath we have the SRC
package then below that we have the Packages(that one can have as many as
required for the project)inside it are the files of the project.Then we
have the JRE System library then there is a list of added jar files.

- com.example.MainEditor
-src
- com.example.MainEditor.Package
- files
- ...
- ...
+ JRE System Library
+ jar file
+ jar file
+ .....
+ .....
build.properties
plugin.xml

For some reason everything above changes to this:

The project name(com.example.NewEditor)remains the same

- com.example.MainEditor
+ Eclipse Main Editor Example
+ JRE System Library
- com.example.MainEditor
- com
- example
- MainEditor
+ Package(name)
+ Package(name)
+ obj16
build.properties
plugin.xml

The plugin.xml gives an error that it can't locate files as the files
location has been changed.

I can't run my project as it changes everything,it has happened on both
WinMe and Win2K.In Win2k the only reason I can think which made the
changes was that I added three more plugins in the dependencies option of
plugin.

I would really apprecaite your help.

Thanks

Syed
