My goal was to create a project in Eclipse that has only certain directories and files. I figured I can do it by setting filters on each folder. So I generated a .project file with the following filters:
Everything worked fine when I opened the project and refreshed the resource tree. However, when I exited Eclipse, my .project had only the top-level filters and few sub-folders. Where is the catch? Why Eclipse removed the rest?

Yes, but...
a) don't do it while Eclipse has the project open because your changes
won't stick, and
b) you had better know what you're doing in there or you'll break the
project.
