In Eclipse, how can I exclude some files (maybe based on the .svn extension or filename) from being copied to the output folder?

I'm developing a Java application using Eclipse. My project has two source directories that are both built and then some files are copied into the output folder. From the output directory I then run my application and all works well.

However, I keep having these warnings:

Anyone know how to get rid of these warnings? Maybe by excluding some files, maybe based on the .svn extension or filename, from the build process? If so, how would I go about excluding those?

java eclipse svn build-process

Have you tried to add

**/.svn/

to the Exclusion patterns at the Source preferences of the project's build path settings?

That sounds like your building process is using versionned directory within your subversion workspace.

Should you not have your 'output' folder and/or your 'tst' folder be made 'private' ? (that is without any .svn, and ignored by subversion)
