Description meliandra 2004-08-18 17:29:46 UTC

[ BUILD # : 200408121535 ]
[ JDK VERSION : J2SE 1.5.0 ]

I can create, close and open a project.

But I can't delete or rename it.

How can I do this?

The close project action seems ok. If you want delete the project you 
must delete the folder that contains the project.
I create source and project files in separated folders.

There is no GUI support for deleting projects in 4.0. Close them,
remove any references to them from other projects, then delete them on
disk (or in the Favorites tab, perhaps).

Thats a step backwards if you compare this functionality with 3.6
