If you're using Eclipse IDE for any Java based projects, you might want to make .classpath or .project files visible.
In order to do so, click the small triangle on the right top side of Project Explorer and select Customize View.
Just deselect / un-tick the .* resources option and refresh your project.
Now you will be able to see the .classpath & .project files, which are hidden by default. Note that the .classpath file will contain information about the classpath and build info while the .project file will contain the project metadata.
This is useful while working with Maven. When you use the command mvn eclipse:eclipse, it creates .classpath & .project files, which are not visible in the project explorer by default. You can make them visible in Eclipse Project Explorer like this.
