Question

When a folder in the Eclipse Package Explorer (one which is linked to a directory somewhere in the filesystem) contains files whose names begin with a . (period), those files do not appear. Can Eclipse be configured to show these files, and if so, how?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Click the down-arrow in the package explorer (next to the editor linker). Then you just change the filters. Unmark the box that says '.*' resources.
