Re: [cdt-patch] Fixes for 43099, 43100, 42400, 42717

[David Inglis <dinglis@xxxxxxx>]

Its seems to me that removing the .metadata is a bit heavy since I 
believe Eclipse will no longer know what are projects in your workspace and
will force everyone to re-create their entire workspace, wouldn't just 
removing the org.eclipse.cdt.core directory under .metadata/plugins suffice?

Oh, and in the future (after release) we must be able to handle file 
format changes programaticly, as asking the user to delete 
files/directorys in the
.metadata is asking for trouble...

Thanks
Dave.
