David, do you see any problem for WTP when we add this filter as enabled per default? I would change name of the filter to 'Java output folders'. Seems like a good idea to me. And, 'enabled' means folders are not shown (by default), right? That would be correct. I'm adding Chuck to CC in case he knows of some complication. > 'enabled' means folders are not shown
Yep.
released > 20080131 I have verified with the N20080202-0010 build. The filter is there and works as expected. The filter's name is still "Output folders" (as in my patch) instead of "Java output folders" (as Daniel suggests to change it). Adjusted filter name in HEAD for M5. Verified in I20080206-1800.

Created attachment 87632 [details] patch The Package Explorer view in the JDT perspective filters the output folders of the Java projects. This filtering is done on JavaModel level. The Web Tools Platform project uses the Project Explorer view in the Java EE perspective. The latter view is not based on the JavaModel and the output folders are not filters. There is also no filter that the user can enable to do the filtering. Looking at the jdt.ui code I have found that there is a filter already implemented: org.eclipse.jdt.internal.ui.filters.OutputFolderFilter. But the filter is not registered as such in the Project Explorer. The proposed patch registers the OutputFolderFilter in the Project Explorer. By, default the filter is enabled.
