I want to know if there is a way to enable auto refresh of eclipse project whenever there is an update on the folder consisting project files. For instance when i update the files from version control such as SVN,or if i include files from my friend etc.
I know we can simply refresh the project or use SVN plug in as such ,but i am simply curious as to folder update notifications. Thanks in advance

Yes , Eclipse version 3.7 has the new lightweight refresh mechanism to keep the workspace synchronized with the underlying filesystem. You can enable it in
Preferences > General > Workspaceand selectRefresh on access.If you use previous version , you can still use the old refresh mechanism by selecting
Refresh using native hooks or pollingReference:
