Description Alex Blewitt CLA 2003-02-17 10:02:58 EST 
Having deleted a number of projects (with test cases and runnable applications), I was left with their runtime configurations in the workspace (both in the run menu and also in the run as configuration box).

When deleting a project, it would make sense to delete these as well.

I have not restarted Eclipse since deleting the projects, so it is possible that a restart would remove these.
Comment 1 Philipe Mulet CLA 2003-02-17 10:19:50 EST 
At least it could prompt you (personally I might keep them since I could want 
to delete/reimport projects).
Comment 2 Alex Blewitt CLA 2003-02-17 11:34:19 EST 
Presumably they are stored in the workspace metadata. Wouldn't it be more beneficial if this kind of information was stored in the per-project metadata (.project) instead of the workspace? That would solve both problems automatically.

Nothing planned for 2.1
Comment 4 Darin Wright CLA 2003-05-26 16:28:18 EDT 
This can be marked as a dup of bug 12746.

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 12746 ***
Comment 6 Alex Blewitt CLA 2003-05-28 18:21:08 EDT 
Verified, but added comments into the 'duplicate' to explicitly bring out
deletion of a project to remove launch config, rather than a refactoring one
of an existing project which is not deleted. Will reopen if the other bug does
not fix this specific issue.
