This page is not about using Eclipse, but about developing for Eclipse. Documentation on the web is scanty and shoddy, and I've found Eclipse to be very, very touchy about the settings when developing plugins. The same value must be set in multiple places or obscure error codes pop out of the woodwork.

plugin.xml
build.properties
Despite the name, this has nothing to do with compiling. Rather, this file defines what what is exported.
.classpath
This file is changed by right clicking on a project name, choosing Properties, and then:
  • Removing or adding jar files on the Java Build Path->Libraries page
  • Reordering exports on the Java Build Path->Order and Export page
It does NOT migrate to the runtime environment, which is not obvious and makes this file poorly named.
.project
