Does anyone know where bookmarks are stored in the Eclipse IDE?
I had to delete a Java project from my workspace, then use the Import Existing project option to reset some configuration settings, and now my bookmarks are gone. I'm trying to understand how this affected my bookmarks, since everything on the file system except for the Eclipse .project and .classpath files should have remained unchanged.

To see the Bookmarks View, select Window > Show View > Other… from the main menu. This will bring up a “Show View” dialog. Open up the “Basic” category, select “Bookmarks”, and press the OK button. You should see the bookmark you created in step one.
Press the "Ctrl," "Shift" and "R" keys on your keyboard simultaneously. A pop-up window will open and you can type in the name of the file you wish to find. Eclipse uses intelligent matching. Once it matches the file, just press "Enter." This is the fastest way to find files of any type, including Java and PHP files.
Use Alt+Enter on the project Name in Eclipse to see the complete path of the project directory where it resides.
Generally they are located in
{workspace}/.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.core.resources/.projects/{project}/.markers
removing the project from the workspace would have removed the markers as well.
