Why does Eclipse try to always add my java files to the Proj/src directory instead of the one I'm trying to add it to?

Question

Why does Eclipse try to always add my java files to the Proj/src directory instead of the one I'm trying to add it to? I mean, I get what it is trying to do, but I'd like to know how to override that behaviour.

Edit

Here is what I'm trying to do:

I have trunk/src/acdc/ast selected and I wish to add a java file to that folder. Yet when I try to add it, it adds it to TTT. (it added it first to TTT/src but since I've removed it from the build path it started adding it straight into TTT).

(and here is how I'm trying to add the files)

Thanks

Answer 1

If you are using the Java perspective, your screenshot seems to indicate that your trunk/src folder is not a source folder for Eclipse.

Try right clicking on it and selecting Build Path -> Use as Source Folder

Answer 2

Right click on src, select Build Path > Remove from build path
