It does have optional source paths, this is what I showed above:
<classpathentry kind="src" path="build/hlsl/Prism">
<attributes>
<attribute name="ignore_optional_problems" value="true"/>
</attributes>
</classpathentry>
I never had any issue with optional sources. According to Andy, it's only on Mac that Eclipse generates a warning (though not an error?), on Win and Linux there is no issue.
