Is there a way in eclipse to make the project's output folder an external folder, instead of a folder located under the project root?
Right-click on your project and choose Properties. Go under C/C++ Build, under Settings. Click on the Build Artifact tab. Under "Output prefix", enter the directory that you want to contain your built file (including a trailing slash).
Eclipse puts binaries in "project folder/bin/" by default.
output directory. [ESRI software] In ArcIMS, the folder designated during installation to hold files being served to users for display in a browser.
The output folder belongs to the Java builder. It summarily deletes files from the output folder that it does not think belong there. It is not possible to get away with adding files directly to the output folder. So you cannot even mate the extra resource files with the class files manually.
Yes, you can define it as a linked folder.

Click onVariables
... to bring up the Select Path Variable dialog.If this is your first time, or you are linking to a new location select New... and give the variable a sensible name and path.
