Hello all,
I don't like the way Package Explorer displays libraries used in the
project. When there are many libraries used in the project (and
contained in the project) they take a lot of imho unnecessary space. For
example my current project is displayed like:
- project_name
|-+ JavaSource
|-+ JRE System Library [sun1.4.2]
|-+ axis.jar
|-+ axis-ant.jar
|-+ commons-beanutils-1.6.1.jar
|-+ commons-collections-2-1.jar
|-+ commons-discovery.jar
|-+ commons-land-2.0.jar
|-+ commons-logging.jar
|-+ jaxrpc.jar
|-+ log4j.jar
|-+ saaj.jar
|-+ wsdl4j.jar
|-+ j2ee1.3-src.jar - C:\java\libs
|-+ WebContent
|-+ build
In this list I almost always use WebContent and JavaSource folders and
the rest makes only crowd.
I tried to:
* use filters and check "referenced libraries" but that option only
hides "JRE System Library" and j2ee1.3-src.jar,
* add a filter pattern like "*.jar" but it completely hides jars, so, on
occasion if I need to see a class or package from Package Explorer I
have to clear pattern,
I can compile all the libraries contained in the project as a single
*superjar* but do I have to do it for each project?
I forgot to tell what I want to see :-) I think libraries, "referenced"
or "contained in the project", as whole should be grouped as a folder in
the tree.
Perhaps I'm missing something.. Can anyone help?
Btw, I'm using Eclipse 3.0.1.
Best regards,
/tb.

Hi Eric,
Thank you for quick response. I haven't used to use that perspective. I
gave it a shot again.. didn't like its view positions. Yes, I can manage
the layout as I like but...
Anyway, I think I'll try to find a way or request it as a feature..
Obsessive people like me would like the feature I guess. :-)
Thanks again.
Best regards,
/tb.

Try the "Referenced libraries" filter (via Package Explorer's Filters...
view menu).
