Limiting "Find Resource" searching? [message #149635] Mon, 24 April 2006 16:42 Go to next message

Hi I am working on a large established project that has this type of
hierarchy:

/project
/build
/deploy
/src

When I do a "Find Resources" for a file called foo.xml the file is found
in all three directories, with the build directory selected by default.
Is there anyway to limit where the "Find Resources" call searches? I know
I should be able to just always move down and select the /src version of
the file I'm looking for, but in the heat of development that doesn't
always happen and then weird stuff starts happening as I end up working on
a copy that is in the build or deploy directory. I don't think I'm just
being lazy as this happens to all the other developers on the project as
well. One of them has given up using the find resource most of the time
and manually scrolls around the project to find what he wants. If anyone
knows how I can only have the stuff in /src show up that would be great.
Thanks!

There is a check box at the bottom of the Open Resource (Ctrl+Shift+R)
dialog, "Show derived resources" - if it is unchecked, you should not
see resources that are "derived," meaning they are produced as the
result of the project build (eg, .class files, non-Java files that are
copied from your source tree into your build output location).

Hope this helps,
Eric

Ahh cool, that is helpful. I just had to go to the /build and /deploy
properties and mark them as derived and vola they stopped showing up in
the find resource. Thanks!
