Eclipse Project Explorer: How do I get rid of ./ JS as working WebContent directory?

Question

I recently synced up through SVN with a new project my team created. Upon checking out the project, my Project Explorer had a unique directory structure at first glance. It had the typical expected folders, but there was one directory marked

./

Which had the "JS" icon on it, and then all of the profile files+folders were under that directory, also with the "JS" icon.

Updating all plugins I have as well as tinkering with how I checkout did not seem to fix it.

I'm assuming there is some kind of property that I need to change within the project, but I have yet to find it. Also, I'm wondering if there is some kind of error before I even check out (so in our SVN) that would be causing it.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Answer 1

I have one option for you which may work. Try creating a filter in the package explorer as shown in the below screenshots.

1. Click on the filter symbol on package explorer

   

2. Click on the Filters option

   

3. Type ./* in the Name filter patterns free flowing text field

   

4. Click OK and see if the strange directory still appears.
