title: Eclipse: Error ".. overlaps the location of another project.." when trying to create new project
body: <p>I keep getting an error message in Eclipse when creating a new project.</p>
  
  <p>I have created a workspace at the level</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>C:\Users\Martin\Java\Counter</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Inside Counter there are no files but there is a directory called counter_src which contains source files for the project Counter</p>
  
  <p>So in Eclipse I do, New Java Project, and then uncheck default location and choose the directory </p>
  
  <p>counter_src  (which is one level down from Counter)</p>
  
  <p>but it now displays</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>C:\Users\Martin\Java\Counter\counter_src overlaps the location of
    another project: 'counter_src'</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Now if I create my workspace at </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>C:\Users\Martin\Java\</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>which means my counter_src is actually 2 levels down then it allows me, but the problem is that the directory Java contains lots of projects so I wanted to create the workspace in Counter (which has no files) which has subdirectory of counter_src where my source files are.</p>
  
  <p>Also tested creating directory in C:\Users\Martin\Java\ and it appears to work also but I didn't want to create another subdirectory in "C:\Users\Martin\Java\" just to store my workspace for 1 project.</p>
