I am getting these strange white package icons in my testing project. From what I've seen @ http://jamie.ideasasylum.com/images/icons.pdf, they signal "empty packages", but I don't know why.
My src/
folder is set is includedin the build path, so I don't get what the problem might be:

Project Explorer additional nodes for web projects, enterprise projects, spring beans and web services. Package Explorer - Provided by the Java Development Tools (JDT) UI project, this provides a view of Java classes for the workspace.
The package explorer & Creating a project If you do not see one, you can open it up by going to the Window menu, selecting Show View and Package Explorer. If it doesn't show up under Show View, select Other, then 'Java', then 'Package Explorer'. The Package Explorer lists each project in the current workspace.
It means the class is not yet added to the repository.
To view the project explorer, click on Window menu then, click on Show View and select Project Explorer. There is simpler way to open project explorer, when you are in the editor press alt + shift + w and select project explorer.
This is most likely because you have chosen hierarchical package views. The hierarchical package view will show empty package icons for packages without any classes.
Switching to flat package views will allow Eclipse to display only packages that have classes in them.
