Reinhard Poetz commented on MECLIPSE-71:
----------------------------------------

ok, this makes it even easier :-)

AFAICS, the SettingsWriter writes to org.eclipse.jdt.core.prefs. It doesn't 
generate the complete file, but reads out the already set parameters and 
overrides the "o.e.j.c.c.compliance", "o.e.j.c.c.source" and "o.e.j.c.c.target" 
properties.

The question now is: Should we delete the file or not? In my projects, 
org.eclipse.jdt.core.prefs is shared via SVN  (e.g. to set project specific 
code styles)  and deleting it is problematic and I don't think necessary.

IIUC, the only file within the .settings directory  that should get deleted 
with eclipse:clean is ".settings/.component", which is generated by the 
EclipseWtpComponentWriter.

I could provide a patch if you want. WDYT?
