What Eclipse/Subversive icon is this little diagonal arrow?

370 views Asked by At

I have noticed this strange icon on my AndroidManifest.xml recently:

File with strange icon

It looks like either a diagonal arrow or a box "leaking" something at the bottom right.

I must have gone through

  • This (Juno Icons)
  • this (List of Subclipse icons in SO answer)
  • and this (Subversive Documentation)

a hundred times but I am not able to find it anywhere.

As I am using Subversive for Subversion integration I suspect it has something to do with it. Other plugins I use are m2e, FindBugs and EclipseMetrics. The IDE is an Eclipse Juno ADT

Does anyone have an idea what this icon means? I'm really curious

AndroidManifest.xml is a linked file. These files/folder also called as Virtual files/folders. Right click on the linked/virtual resource(file/folder) and click on Properties to know more about it.

Refer Eclipse News and Noteworthy and Link to Files and Folders in Eclipse for more details

There are similar arrows in the Web Tools Platform, meaning reference (as in group reference or in attribute reference). So I suppose in your case it might be a file reference to an xml file.
