What does this icon in Eclipse mean?

I am referring specifically to the green plus sign in the screenshot below.

[edit] This is taken from "Outline" view, and I am coding in Java.

The green + sign is an overlay that shows that the visibility of the class is set to public. The orange is a warning that there could be a potential issue in that class. This might not necessarily stop your class from running or performing well. It is just telling you to be aware of something that may or may not be harmful.

This might help: What do the icons in Eclipse mean?

From the icon index, the plus means add, the C means public class, and the warning means that there is a java element warning.

So from what I can assume, it means you can add a new public class, but is warning you of possible problems with your current project.
