Description Bob Dytyniak CLA 2006-02-23 11:48:05 EST 
Often many code generating plugins/tools create java source files of type derived.
Apart from the Delete specific to the tool (and often not reliable). There is no easy way to Delete/Clean all "derived" files at the workspace scope or specific to a certain project(s).

So, whats needed is:

a) A new Project item: "Clean (i.e. delete)  derived" files in workspace
b) Clean (delete) derived files in selected project(s)

I was almost fooled into thinking this was a new request ;)
