When adding a colon in a project's name, Code Assist does not work

Example project names:
"EXT solr" -> Code Assist works
"EXT:solr" -> Code Assist does not work

Reproducible: Always
Comment 1 Ingo Renner CLA 2010-09-15 16:04:53 EDT 
The "EXT:" notation is quite common for TYPO3 extension projects, being EXT an abbreviation for extension, followed by a colon, followed by the extension name
Comment 2 xu jiaxi CLA 2010-10-18 03:00:28 EDT 
"colon" is an invalid character in a project name.

So how did you input a colon into a project name?

hi Xu,
I can easily create PHP project with colon. Not sure why you can't.
Comment 4 Jacek Pospychala CLA 2010-10-18 04:07:49 EDT 
Ah, Ingo seems to be using Mac. So this may be OS-specific. Mac and Linux should allow ":" in project name, whereas Win will not allow it.
Comment 5 Ingo Renner CLA 2010-10-18 05:30:42 EDT 
I remember it might not have allowed me to create project containing a colon in the name, but it definitely allowed me to put a colon in the name when renaming the project...

I could rename to xxx:,and I will try to fix this bug under linux.

screenshot / project name is "php:test"

Probably the immediate cause is
org.eclipse.dltk.internal.core.Model.getTarget(IContainer, IPath, boolean)

This method cannot handle the project name which contains ":", since the part of project name before IPath.DEVICE_SEPARATOR is considered as a device.
The path of project should be constructed with Path(null, project_path), maybe...
