ELK Sample code shows missing Options class [message #1844930]

I followed the steps for an algorithm developer, installed ELK, and created a new Project in Eclipse following the "Creating a New Project" page. After following these steps I have a Java project. The two source programs won't run without an "options" file. I don't know what steps to take to produce that options file, and where it belongs in the project hierarchy. Could someone provide a sample?

The answer is a bit late, however, if someone else is searching for the solution:
The problem seems to be that no options file is generated from the *.melk file.
This usually happens when the id and the name of the algorithm are the same.
For example, if I name my new Projekt "Test" then id and name (as well as algorithm id) will also be "Test".
Naming the project "test" fixes the issue.
