Eclipse ignoring source when deploying webapp - eclipse

I'm running eclipse with tomcat 5.5. For some unknown reason from one day to the other eclipse stoped compiling my beans and java files that are in the source folder.
If I go to the work directory, I find all the JSP compiled, the folders of the packadges i have, but no classes compiled inside of them. Neither eclipse, nor tomcat give errors. (Except when i try to access the non existing classes)
Anyone has any idea why this happens and how to fix it?

You might have "Build automatically" disabled. You can find it in the Project menu.

I've faced with such a scenario once. In addition it did not detect the local changes w.r.t the code repository. Honestly I don't know the reason but use of a new eclipse installation (Extraction) on same workspace resolved the issue.

Found the problem:
One of the files came out of SVN without read access. Eclipse blocked reading it and wouldn't compile.
+1 to all tks

Duplication of resource folders within an Eclipse Project

I am writing an Eclipse Plug-in which requires me to add two new configurations to the ManagedProject upon mouse-click on a menu option. I basically runs on Android projects that has Native Support Added to it. I am trying to achieve this using ManagedBuildManager and Configuration classes from the CDT core plug-in interfaces.(org.eclipse.cdt.managedbuilder.core.* package).
To complete the task, I create two new Configurations for the project and run the exportArtifactInfo() method to complete the action. In the end, the configuration gets added but the project folder contains duplicate folders of all the original folders in the Project folder.
I looked up if there is a bug in CDT 4.0 and found that it is indeed a resolved bug.
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=194395
But I cannot figure out what the actual fix is for this bug. If anyone has encountered and fixed it or knows how to fix this, please point me in the right direction.

Why does restarting a computer wreak havoc on Java Build Path?

I'm sure we've all been there, I've got a JSF (Java) project on Eclipse that built fine yesterday, I call it quits for the night, turn off my computer and come back to it the next day only to find missing JAR errors, some of which are due to actual missing classes, others I can clearly find by navigating my build path. What's up with that? Is windows scheming against me and re-indexing files or something while I'm away?
So this might be IDE dependent on Eclipse Java EE Juno but on restart it created a copy of my src folder as a library which caused some Hibernate - duplicate mapping errors

Eclipse project which depends on another one - Class not found exception

I've got 2 projects in the same workspace where one of them is added as a "required project" to the properties of the other one.
If I try to run the project I keep getting ClassNotFound Exceptions (probably because the bin directory isn't part of the runtime classpath?!)
Is there any nice way to fix this?
Maybe there is any solution where my teammates who work on the same project (via SVN) don't have to do any configuration on their machines.
Thanks a lot in advance,
Martin
Try cleaning and rebuilding your work space.

GlassFish NoClassDefFoundError - Netbeans project

I'm sometimes getting NoClassDefFoundError after deploying web application in Netbeans (6.9.1). It's actually problem with Netbeans not deploying entire project (not copying class files or other relevant files), but only part of it.
Running "Clean & Build" a few times and/or copying rest of the files solves the problem, but it's very inconvenient.
Anyone knows the cause or solution of this problem?
Try clearing your Netbeans cache, or check out the bug fixes for Netbeans 7.
The cache is at ~/.netbeans/6.9/var/cache. I found instructions to just delete the index/ folder in the cache, but that didn't seem to be enough.
EDIT: Deleting the entire cache didn't seem to resolve it, either.
Your answer is not much clear but,
I suggest to add your required jar files in Netbeans library then import the library into your project..
If this does not work then i'll be glad to having the complete situation and errors to be written here...

Eclipse won't delete files

I've got an ANT project with libs managed by ivy (they are under lib_managed). Eclipse is using the jars to. Probelm is: if I try to update the directory ant refuses to delete it because eclipse holds on to the jars in its classpath. Even if I update (empty) eclipses classpath I can't delete the files. If anyone had the same problem and found a solution I would be thankfull for an answer.

Not a solution, but a workaround. I experience Eclipse keeping locks on files quite often in different contexts. I suggest using Unlocker.
I guess this is on Windows. Use the Process Explorer to figure out who is locking the files. Eclipse shouldn't keep a lock; maybe you have the code running in the debugger (hanging in a breakpoint). Use the list of open files and the properties to figure out which Java program is keeping the lock on the files.
If it's really Eclipse, try to upgrade to a newer version of Eclipse or close the project when you need to update the dependencies with ivy.
Cleaning the workspace and restarting eclipse may solve the problem. But in real development environment i don't think its a good idea to restart eclipse whenever you need to build a jar.
