Why do I get a warning: "build.properties does not exist"

Question

This appears to be something to do with the Plugin Development Environment, but I'm not writing an Eclipse Plugin.

How can I stop getting this warning?

Thanks a lot!

If you are not writing a plug-in, then you can edit the .project file and remove the Plugin Nature, and perhaps also the api tools nature if it is there.

<projectDescription>
    ...
    <natures>
        <nature>org.eclipse.pde.PluginNature</nature>
        <nature>org.eclipse.jdt.core.javanature</nature>
        <nature>org.eclipse.pde.api.tools.apiAnalysisNature</nature>
    </natures>
</projectDescription>
