macOS Eclipse Problem

[macuser1232]

Whenever I want to open a file in Eclipse it shows me all of the hidden files. How do I change it so I can just see regular files?

This befuddles me too. It looks like you're not alone: http://eclipse.1072660.n5.nabble.com/Open-file-dialog-shows-hidden-files-on-Mac-td90426.html
I am unable to find a solution with Googling. 🙁

Eclipse filter setting

I am not using Eclipse very much for my projects, but are those filter settings a possible solution? http://cesaric.com/?p=591 for your problem?

Unfortunately no. I have the latest Eclipse(Juno) so mine doesn't look like the one in the link.

You hit this bug reported 10 years ago and now fixed in Eclipse Neon (4.6): https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=109353
Not an official release yet, Milestone 3 is available at the time of writing: http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/packages/release/Neon

I always download Eclipse for JAVA from: http://download.eclipse.org/eclipse/downloads/
and, believe me, 4.6M3 is as good as an official release.
Done so for 12 years.
;JOOP!

Indeed, I'm sure that release is good enough for many people.
I prefer the link I posted above as I don't have that much experience with Eclipse and it gives you the full package rather than the single components to be put together 🙂
Or you could use the Eclipse installer to install Neon very easily!
