J2EE eclipse file uploading project requires refresh on package explorer before server register new file?

Hi there,

I am using struts to build an image uploading module.

However, I am encountering the problem of user not able to see the file they upload until I manually refresh the package explorer on eclipse.

Any one know how to solve this?

Preference > General > Workspace > 'Refresh automatically'

Note: the 'refresh automatically' was introduced in eclipse3.0.

There was a similar issue for CVS file.
