This appears to be something to do with the Plugin Development Environment, but I'm not writing an Eclipse Plugin.
How can I stop getting this warning?
Thanks a lot!

For my case, none of the above proposals helped. But the actual solution was surprisingly simple: in the Problems view, open the warning's context menu (right-click) and select "Delete". Confirm the standard warning that pops up, and the warning was gone, and did not re-appear again after even after "clean" and build.

Deleting .metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources/.projects/_your_project_name_ also worked for me. I had to restart my IDE (Eclipse) for me to see the changes. Rebuilding and refreshing did not reflect the changes.

Thanks for this tip! Removing th whole .metadata folder deletes a lot of personal configuration, but deleting .metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources/.projects/_your_project_name_ is sufficient.

I had the same error, but non of the other solutions worked for me. I'm using eclipse 4.3 and I had to remove the .metadata folder. After reloading the project the warning was gone.

If you are not writing a plug-in, then you can edit the .project file and remove the Plugin Nature, and perhaps also the api tools nature if it is there.
<projectDescription>
...
<natures>
<nature>org.eclipse.pde.PluginNature</nature>
<nature>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javanature</nature>
<nature>org.eclipse.pde.api.tools.apiAnalysisNature</nature>
</natures>
</projectDescription>

Is this a simple Java project? And what version of eclipse (and plugins) are you using?
Because for an EMF project (model), the build.properties won't exist until we generate the model (as mentioned here).
Otherwise, try a full refresh of the project, and/or check if you have a file referencing a build.properties files within your project.
