Hi Vijay, that's not correct. Eclipse allows you to put any file type you like in the classes folder!
The only problem here is, that those files will be deleted after every "rebuild" of the project. On the other hand, all "non java" resources are copied automatically by eclipse to the classes folder if located in a "source" folder. That's why it's very easy to put the .xinfo file along with the corresponding .java file in a source folder - it will be copied automatically to the classes folder. Same with the block.xml - as long it is located in a "source" folder. Could you please describe in more detail what you are trying to achieve - and I will try to give you a solution.
