Description prakash narayana CLA 2010-05-27 04:45:10 EDT 
Build Identifier: 

Recursive folder will be created when importing the C project when workspace is the project folder. This hangs the import wizard and keeps on creating the recursive folders inside the project folder.
Please see more info in the steps to reproduce section.
Please revert back to me if you require any more info.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Steps to reproduce
1. Create a basic C hellow world project say "Project1" and copy it to C:\temp
2. Launch the eclipse 3.5
3. Select the workspace as "C:\temp\Project1"
4. Invoke the general import wizard by clicking "File->Import->General->Existing project into workspace"
5. Select the root directory as "C:\temp\Project1"
6. Select "Copy project into workspace", if this option is not selected then an error displays that project configuration is currupted.
7. Perform finish
8. The invocation ends up in a loop and starts creating the recursive project folders inside the specified project folder "C:\temp\Project1"
9. You can cancel the wizard and check the folder via explorer.
