Description

« Hide

When I add a directory to the classpath it does not show up in the project view. Its a config directory with spring xml files and I would like to open them normally. As soon as I remove the directory from the classpath it appears again in the project view.

The directory should appear underneath the "Libraries" section of the module, where you can then access the files normally. I believe this functionality changed from version 4.5 to 5.

I actually saw this too and I understand the idea that now you have added it to the classpath it should show up under libraries. But I think that it should only be removed from the project when you say so or when its a jar file. There could have been other config files as well you would like to edit. And going to the libraries is not that intuitive.
