Bug 47922

[ BUILD # : 200408191352 ]
[ JDK VERSION : J2SE 1.5.0 ]

This exception could also come from wrong usage.

I've got a big project e.g.

ext.dev
ext.gui
ext.something

If I mount the src directory and compile everything I get compilation errors. Regarding other independently working developers haven't checked everything. But this didn't matter me in the most cases because I'm working in a different area.

I've posted "How to set main project class" in the netcat and get the suggestion to make project with just a part of my sources.

So what I now tried is to create a project where the source directory isn't src it's instead src/ext/dev.

After clicking on the button to create the project the exception occurs.

So from my point of view if I set up my project wrong I should get a meaningful error message.
