Eclipse plugin - empty src folder

[maarte...@gmail.com]

Hi everyone,

I'm new to Google Web Toolkit. I started out by installing the Eclipse
plugin to take the Getting Started tutorial. Unfortunately, the first
step of the tutorial does something strange:

When I create a new project (Web Application Project) all the files
and folder are created (I can see everything that should be there in
Windows Explorer). But in Eclipse, I can't open the src folder. It is
as if the folder is empty, when it certainly is not.

I tried several times, setting up project with different settings, but
the src folder stays empty in Eclipse... I can't edit a file this way,
so I can't work at all. I've searched the Internet for this problem
but haven't found any help.

Anyone here that could lend a hand?

I'm running Windows XP, Java 1.6, Eclipse 3.4.1 (Ganymede) and
installed Google Plugin for Eclipse 3.4, Google Web Toolkit SDK 1.6.4
and Google App Engine Java SDK 1.2.0.

Thanks!

Hi Maarten,

What is the full path to this project? Are there any characters in
the path that could be revealing bugs in the plugin?

Also, which View are using to look at the source folder? Can you
check to see if the Navigator view (Window > Show view > Navigator)
shows the files?

After the web app project is created, can you right-click on the
source folder and add a new class? Does that show up? Can you make
sure the View is not filtered? (You can do this by clicking the
down-facing arrow in the upper-right corner of the View, and selecting
"Filters".)

Do other projects work ok? (e.g. A regular Java project)

Thanks,
jason

Hello Maarten,

Did you try to refresh your project in Eclipse, to do so, right-
click on your project in Eclipse and select refresh. This will synch
your project in Eclipse with your file system on your computer. Also,
in Ecplise you can set filters of what files to show, make sure that
you have the correct settings.
Hope this will help.

Cheers,
Zainab Aziz.
