Build Identifier: 20100617-1415 When using a Working Set in the C/C++ Perspective: Project Explorer View, adding new folders should, IMHO, add them to the currently selected Working Set, so that I can see them in the Project Explorer immediately. Current implementation is that they aren't, so they disappear from the UI as soon as they are created. Users (i.e. "I") have to then check the box of the new folder down in the hierarchy using the Edit Working Set UI. I think its a decent assumption to make that if I have a Working Set open and create a new folder that I want it to be part of the Working Set (and thus be able to see it) by default. Don't know which component this really belongs in, SORRY! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Create a project with in C/C++ Perspective 2.Open Project Explorer, create some new folders 3.Create a Working Set and select it, including some of the new folders 4.Now select a folder in the Project Explorer and try to add a Source Folder, like "src" under "/myProject/componentFoo" 5.Watch the src folder disappear! (and now for the workaround...) 6.Go to Edit Working Set dialog and navigate down to check the "src" folder box 7.Watch the src folder appear now (t
4.Now select a folder in the Project Explorer and try to add a Source Folder, like "src" under "/myProject/componentFoo" The Source Folder wizard should use the WorkingSetGroup, so that you can add the folder the working set. Moving to CDT for comments.
Fixing component.
Build Identifier: 20110218-0911 After adding a folder (no matter if normal folder or source folder was chosen), manually refreshing the project (pressing F5) is needed for the folders to appear.

I believe this is bug 338782. In general it is common Eclipse practice to not add folders or projects automatically to a working set, instead the wizards may provide an option to do so. Except for bug 338782 I cannot see any wrong behavior with respect to working sets. I'll change this bug to an enhancement request to use the WorkingSetGroup in the new C/C++ Project and Source Folder wizards.
I just found bug 338685 which asks for this option in the C/C++ Project wizard, so I'll leave this one for the Source Folder wizard.
