Eclipse has developed a habit of deleting one of my output directories, then complaining that it can’t build the project because the directory is missing. If I manually create the directory, Eclipse immediately deletes it again as soon as a build starts.
The directory being deleted is myProject/webroot/web-inf/classes. Other files located in that web-inf directory do not get deleted.
Any ideas as to what would cause Eclipse to delete the classes directory?

Next time it happens, go to your Project PRoperties > Java Build Path, make sure the Output dir is set to that, then hit OK… it should recreate it. Also is this dir in source control? Is it possible that your source control software could be erasing it?
