Description Chris Wiebe CLA 2008-04-10 00:18:13 EDT
It would be incredibly useful to be able to create working sets based on a wildcard pattern.  So for example, a working set called "Foo" could be defined as "com.mystuff.foo.*" and any projects matching the name would show up in the working set.  This would work dynamically so any time you create or import a project matching the pattern it automatically appears in the working set.

moving to the wonderful Platform UI team
Comment 2 Kim Horne CLA 2008-04-11 10:17:56 EDT
I actually have some prototype code that does this very thing.  Perhaps for 3.5.

Dup of bug 62646?
Comment 4 Kim Horne CLA 2008-12-04 14:21:36 EST
Yep.  Incidentally, the prototype didn't get very far but with more cycles it could be implemented I believe.
