Adding source roots to Eclipse project is not synchronizing with Netbeans

To help clarify this issue (if it needs clarification),
Whenever you add an Eclipse source folder, NetBeans does not notice the new source.
Whenever you rename or delete an Eclipse source folder, NetBeans notices that the original source folder is no longer
accessible, and hides it in the Projects Navigator.  That, however, I believe is normal NetBeans behavior, and outside
the scope of the Eclipse Project Importer. 

Comparing the data in Eclipse Project's .classpath file on every resynchronize to their NetBeans counterpart should
resolve this issue, however I don't know how you would account for folder renaming (or if for NetBeans' sake you need to).

To Replicate:
1) Create a new Eclipse Java Project.
2) Create a new source folder named "srcTwo".  There should now be 2 source folders: "src" and "srcTwo"
3) Import the project into NetBeans.
4) Go back to Eclipse, right-click "srcTwo", click Refactor, click Rename... Name it "srcThree".
5) In NetBeans, "srcTwo" will disappear, and "srcThree" will not show up.
6) Go back to Eclipse and rename "srcThree" back to "srcTwo".
5) In NetBeans, "srcTwo" will reappear.

Not planning on working on noncritical Eclipse importer bugs for 6.8.
Comment 4 Martin Balin 2016-07-07 08:39:37 UTC 
This old bug may not be relevant anymore. If you can still reproduce it in 8.2 development builds please reopen this issue.

Thanks for your cooperation,
