how to hide files from package explorer

Hi all I am developing a plugin where i m creating project through my own wizard. I have used javaElementFilters to hide my file named device-configs.xml. It only works with eclipse helios sdk versions.

Can anyone suggest me better way to hide file? Or other extension point that can work in all eclipse versions of 3.6 & also in MyEclipse also?

Right click on the project, then go Properties, then Resource > Resource Filters and add a exclude filter.

The javaElementFilters work only in the Views supplied by JDT and it should work in all the versions. What do you mean by "only works with eclipse helios sdk versions"?
