Hay this was a massive surprise. I was associating eclipse with an already created ActionScript project I was working with. I selected the the project content and added a preexisting folder I then realized it was the wrong folder so I pressed back. After that the folder and all its content were gone except for a “.project” file that was pretty useless. Lucky for me I back up regularly only lost a few hours of work. Just something to keep in mind for all us Eclipse based flash developers 😉
This actually happened to me when working on Axe Dancefloor a couple of years ago. I think it has something to do with the way you create the project. These days I tend just to create a new project and point it to the directory that has the files in. Is this what you did? I’ve not had the same problem since.
Ya i think technically when u add a project it creates the folder before the end of the add process so when you press back it removes the folder it thinks it created.
