[Subclipse-users] Feature Request: Share Directory

Hi,

I don't know whether this is the right place for feature requests, but
here is my feature request:
At the moment it is not possible to only share some sub directories from
an eclipse project, though that would be really a cool feature.
The reason I really need this is because I don't want to have the
eclipse specific project settings on subversion, I only want the real
program sources there.
For example:

    *Svn Layout:*

        http://somserver/svn/trunk/project1

    *Eclipse project layout:*

        /src -> http://somserver/svn/trunk/project1
        /teststuff
        /data
        some_test_output_I_dont_want_on_subversion.txt
        .project
        .classpath

Being able to share directories would also allow eclipse project layout
such as:

    /src -> http://somserver/svn/trunk/project1
    /othersrc -> http://somserver/svn/trunk/proj3
    /data -> http://dataserver/svn/trunk/data
    some_test_output_I_dont_want_on_subversion.txt
    .project
    .classpath

The reasons that I dont want to put the complete eclipse project folder
into subversion are:

    * Not everybody from our team uses eclipse (some use Idea,...)
    * Personally I prefer to have only pure sources under source control

At the moment I use some kind of work around:

    * I create an eclipse src project containing / ->
      http://somserver/svn/trunk/project1
    * I create an eclipse bin project that is initially empty and refers
      to the src project
    * I create run configurations in the src project, and change their
      project to the bin project.

This works for me, but is not ideal, specially for people I want to
convince to start developing in Eclipse instead of in IntelliJ IDEA :-)

Please give me some comments on whether this sounds like a good idea or
not (and maybe a place where I can submit feature requests)

Greetings,
Folke
