In an eclipse project there was once the classpath variable JAVA_TOOLS (pointing somewhere to the Java installation). I don’t need the variable anymore, so I removed it from the project, but eclipse still complains

Unbound classpath variable: 'JAVA_TOOLS' in project '...'

and refuses to do anything. I’ve removed the variable also from eclipse and cleaned the project. The command find . -type f | xargs grep JAVA_TOOLS returns no matches, so I have no idea where the reference may still exist.

    So it looks like such things get cached somewhere outside of the project directory.
